[Verse 1]
I know it won't last, but I'm in too deep
My mind's off-beat, can't eat, can't sleep
You're my Kryptonite, and I'm so weak
But I'm too damn stubborn to admit defeat
And you'll leave, and that's okay
I knew it when I signed up
I was lost but you found me, and that was the day, I remembered who I really was
I tried to deny what I felt inside
I lied and tried to hide it to protect my pride
But every time I met your eyes, a little part of me died
Quite frankly, I'm petrified
Cause even when I'm with you, I feel like I miss you
And every time you're down, I try my best to lift you
But I just don't get you
Cause if it's not me you're into
Then why would you let me kiss you?

[Hook]
You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat
Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne
Before you showed up, I was happy on my own
Loving you is just like chasing ghosts

[Interlude]
Loving you is just like chasing ghosts

[Verse 2]
Maybe I'm stubborn
Maybe I'm dumb
Maybe I'm crazy or stupid or young
Maybe I'm hung up on you like you're hung up on them
It's ironic the way this is spun
I wish I could run, but I can't, and it sucks
I can't just ignore how I feel in my gut
Cause you're my Titanic, it's sad and it's tragic
But I can't abandon my ship 'til it's sunk
I'll give you my heart just in case yours breaks
I'll give you my armor, my sword, and my cape
When you're overburdened, I'll carry your weight
After all, what's a knight with nobody to save?
I'll put a smile on your face when you need one
When you wanna quit, I’ll tell you to be strong
And if everyone else in your life is to leave
I’ll be there as the one you can lean on

[Hook: x2]
You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat
Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne
Before you showed up, I was happy on my own
Loving you is just like chasing ghosts

[Bridge]
Loving you is just like chasing ghosts
Loving you is just like chasing
OH!

[Hook: x2]
You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat
Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne
Before you showed up, I was happy on my own
Loving you is just like chasing ghosts

[Outro]
Oh, it’s just like chasing ghosts
