[English]

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

I'll lose myself and forget everything in the real world

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

Clutch my heart

Dominate me, and I'll give you everything I have

You can be my ghost girl

I feel you, wherever your feet land

I'm completely consumed by you

An emotion that makes me suffocate

You're my breath, you're my truth

You’re the one I don’t wanna lose

A fever is rising intensely

I'm suffering from you again today

Tossing and turning every night in my bed

An alarm ringing like a hallucination

The moment I open my eyes

Your silhouette, hazy and lingering

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

I'll lose myself and forget everything in the real world

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

Clutch my heart

Dominate me, and I'll give you everything I have

You can be my ghost girl

All of my friends, when they see me, they say I'm unresponsive

And I don’t really care, I don’t really care

Even hell would feel like heaven

Baby, please stay with me

I love it, nothing gets me scared

Darling, as long as I'm with you

I'll walk through the dark

So what if they call me crazy?

It's you who makes me breathe

I'll follow you wherever you are

Transcending any kind of farewell

You can be my ghost girl

Come and take my soul, girl

Even after pouring out my soul, I offer my heart again

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

Even if you consume me

Only you make me breathe

You can be my ghost girl

(You can be my ghost girl)

(You can be my ghost girl)

I just wanna be with you

I just wanna stay with you

I just wanna live and die with you

You can be my ghost girl

[Korean]

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

나를 잃은 채 전부 잊을게 real world

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

내 심장을 틀어쥐어

지배당한 채 나의 모든 걸 넘겨

You can be my ghost girl

I feel you 발 닿는 곳 그 어디든

꼭 씐 듯해 너에게 전부

질식할 듯한 감정

너만이 내 숨, 너만이 내 truth

You’re the one I don’t wanna lose

지독하게 열이 올라

오늘도 널 앓아

뒤척여 every night in my bed

환청처럼 울린 alarm

두 눈을 뜬 순간

아른거리는 너의 silhouette

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

나를 잃은 채 전부 잊을게 real world

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

내 심장을 틀어쥐어

지배당한 채 나의 모든 걸 넘겨

You can be my ghost girl

All of my friends 날 보곤 답 없대

And I don’t really care, I don’t really care

지옥마저 천국일 테니

Baby 함께 있어 주길

I love it nothing gets me scared

Darling 너와 함께라면

걸어가 through the dark

미친놈이래도 뭐 어때

너로 인해 숨 쉬는 나

따라가 where you are

어떤 이별조차 초월해

You can be my ghost girl

Come and take my soul, girl

영혼을 다 쏟고도 또 건네는 heart

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

나를 잠식해도

오직 너만이 나를 숨 쉬게 한걸

You can be my ghost girl

(You can be my ghost girl)

(You can be my ghost girl)

I just wanna be with you

I just wanna stay with you

I just wanna live and die with you

You can be my ghost girl
