about

Matty asked me to write a song with him and came to me with an awesome basic melody/music idea. We finished writing it in two writing sessions. It involves a couple who seem to be having issues.
(SPOILERS)
We find out in the bridge that he's actually a ghost and died in a car crash.

lyrics

Verse 1
I see you pulling away from me
I’m trying to find who I’m meant to be
You look right through me
I can’t see past you
you (never) changed

I can’t seem to take a steady step (how can you walk away?)
It’s like you’re breathing down my neck
(I just want to hold you again)
I’m suffocating (please come back to me)
Just leave me be (don’t go away)
You never listen(ed) to me

Chorus
You Haunt Me (repeated throughout)
I am the hollow man that walks around you
I am The ghost of who I used to be
I’ve hit the wall and feel as if I’m passing through-----
I am a poltergeist when I’m around you
I am a shadow of the man before
You’ve built a wall and now I can’t break through... to you
You haunt me

Verse 2
I thought a year was long enough
But they can see right through my bluff
If time can’t heal me
You left but you won’t leave me
I can’t Please go away

I saw you there with someone else (I tried to move on from you)
I threw your books off of the shelf (you scared another one away)
Why (why) do you hurt me so?
Why won’t you let me go?
Stop running from the truth

Chorus
You Haunt Me (repeated throughout)
I am the hollow man that walks around you
I am The ghost of who I used to be
I’ve hit the wall and feel as if I’m passing through-----
I am a poltergeist when I’m around you
I am a shadow of the man before
You’ve built a wall and now I can’t break through... to you
You haunt me

Bridge
Our love was
a car crash
A beautiful mess
Killed the man I (you) once knew
Is standing
beside (why) you
Why can’t you see me?

Chorus (or just oohs and aahs)
You Haunt Me (repeated throughout)
I am the hollow man that walks around you
I am The ghost of who I used to be
I’ve hit the wall and feel as if I’m passing through-----
I am a poltergeist when I’m around you
I am a shadow of the man before
You’ve built a wall and now I can’t break through... to you
You haunt me
