Friendly Neighborhood Poltergeist (Demo)

Been staring at you for days
But you never seem to look my way
My I love yous 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 tryna 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

La-La-La-La
La-La-La-La-La-La-La
La-La-La-La
La-La-La-La-La-La-La-La-La

I don’t know why I try
When it’s just 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 gonna be 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
