[Intro]
House on a dead-end road
Screen static, red eyes glow
Floorboards cough, walls talk low
(you feel that?)
[Verse 1]
Ghost in the hallway, hoodie and hurt
Tattooed heartbreak, blood on the shirt
Scroll through the footage, frame starts to split
Face in the mirror keeps lagging, glitch
Room like a warzone, holes in the door
Echoes of shouting still stuck in the floor
Mom on the mattress, praying for calm
I load every memory into my palm
[Chorus]
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
Bang-bang thoughts that I can’t tune out (hey!)
Spirit in the crosshair, breathing loud
But I’m aiming at my trauma now
Shots ring out in my head each night
I’m at war with the dark inside
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
I’m the ghost you can’t shut down
[Verse 2]
Gun on the game screen, thumb on the trigger
Friends in a party chat laughing, snicker
Same time sirens sing down the block
Real steel barking at a corner shop
Scroll past names in a black text thread
Candle emojis for the kids gone dead
I draw a spiper on my desk in ink
Marked-up scope so I never blink
[Chorus]
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
Bang-bang thoughts that I can’t tune out (woah)
Spirit in the crosshair, breathing loud
But I’m aiming at my trauma now
Shots ring out in my head each night
I’m at war with the dark inside
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
I’m the ghost you can’t shut down
[Bridge]
[half-time, drums drag, guitars swell]
Hands up, but it’s only me
Shadow on the cracked TV
Count scars like tally marks
Every click could spark the dark
[Chorus]
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
Bang-bang thoughts that I can’t tune out
Spirit in the crosshair, breathing loud
But I’m aiming at my trauma now
Shots ring out in my head each night
I’m at war with the dark inside
I’m a glitch in the haunted house
I’m the ghost you can’t shut down (can’t shut down)
