Lyrics:

[English]

I'm searching

For something

That I can't reach

...

I don't like them innocent

I don't want no face fresh

Want them wearing leather

Begging, let me be your taste test"

I like the sad eyes, bad guys

Mouth full of white lies

Kiss me in the corridor

But quick to tell me goodbye

You say that you're no good for me

'Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve

And I swear I hate you when you leave

But I like it anyway

My ghost

Where'd you go?

I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me

My ghost

Where'd you go?

What happened to the soul that you used

To be?

You're a Rolling Stone boy

Never sleep alone boy

Got a million numbers

And they're filling up your phone, boy

I'm off the deep end, sleeping

All night through the weekend

Saying that I love him but

I know I'm gonna leave him

You say that you're no good for me

'Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve

And I swear I hate you when you leave

But I like it anyway

My ghost

Where'd you go?

I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me

My ghost

Where'd you go?

What happened to the soul that you used

To be?

...

I'm searching

For something

That I can't reach

...

My ghost

Where'd you go?

I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me

My ghost

Where'd you go?

What happened to the soul that you used

To be?

...
