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

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

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

I've 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 trying to make my move
But that dude keeps stealing you

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

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

I don't know why I try
When this is only ever gonna end
With my demise
I don't wanna die twice
It wasn't very fun the first time
I don't know why I try
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 know why I try
I don't wanna die twice
It wasn't very fun the first time
