Friendly Neighborhood Poltergeist
[Verse 1]
Been staring at you for days
But you never seem to look my way
My I love you's in your alphabet soup seem to go to waste
Been keeping myself at bay
Now everything's going pear-shaped
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess boys with beating hearts
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Every time I try to make contact
Feels like a supernatural attack
Misinterpret then you react
I guess it's back to the attic, I'm so dramatic
It's so sad
But the last time that I let someone inside, I was buried alive
[Chorus]
Hi, I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
Nobody ever looks at me twice
I'm used to being see-through, but it feels so bad when it happens with you
Wish you'd see me the way I see you
[Verse 2]
I been spelling my name in your LEGO bricks
I don't know how to be more obvious
You're close enough to almost touch
But not close enough to hold
Been tryna make my move
But that dude keeps stealing you
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess boys with beating hearts
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Every time I try to make contact
Feels like a supernatural attack
Misinterpret then you react
I guess it's back to the attic, I'm so dramatic
It's so sad
But the last time that I let someone inside, I was buried alive
[Chorus]
Hi, I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
Nobody ever looks at me twice
I'm used to being see-through, but it feels so bad when it happens with you
Wish you'd see me the way I see you
[Chorus]
Hi, I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
Nobody ever looks at me twice
I'm used to being see-through, but it feels so bad when it happens with you
Wish you'd see me the way I see you
[Bridge]
La la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
[Outro]
I don't know why I tried
This rejection got me feeling cold as ice
I don't wanna die twice
It wasn't very fun the first time
I don't wanna die twice
It wasn't very fun the first time
