| Description | “G H O S T S” is the debut single by rapper/singer Ashtin Larold, and the lead single to his debut album, Jersey Devil. One of Ashtin’s most popular songs, “G H O S T S” made its world premiere with the official music video on June 14, 2016, and was released to iTunes & Spotify later that month, on June 24, 2016. The song, a rap number with elements of R&B and pop, was initially thought to be about Ashtin falling in love with a girl, and not being able to handle the thought of their relationship ending because of how much she has changed him. However, on September 12, 2016, Ashtin seemed to confirm on Twitter that the song was about expressing gratitude for his relationship with his girlfriend, graphic designer, tattoo artist & singer Shelby Ouellette. https://twitter.com/AshtinLarold/status/775479203097522176 |
| Lyrics | [Verse 1] I know it won't last, but I'm in too deep My mind's off-beat, can't eat, can't sleep You're my Kryptonite, and I'm so weak But I'm too damn stubborn to admit defeat And you'll leave, and that's okay I knew it when I signed up I was lost but you found me, and that was the day, I remembered who I really was I tried to deny what I felt inside I lied and tried to hide it to protect my pride But every time I met your eyes, a little part of me died Quite frankly, I'm petrified Cause even when I'm with you, I feel like I miss you And every time you're down, I try my best to lift you But I just don't get you Cause if it's not me you're into Then why would you let me kiss you? [Hook] You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne Before you showed up, I was happy on my own Loving you is just like chasing ghosts [Interlude] Loving you is just like chasing ghosts [Verse 2] Maybe I'm stubborn Maybe I'm dumb Maybe I'm crazy or stupid or young Maybe I'm hung up on you like you're hung up on them It's ironic the way this is spun I wish I could run, but I can't, and it sucks I can't just ignore how I feel in my gut Cause you're my Titanic, it's sad and it's tragic But I can't abandon my ship 'til it's sunk I'll give you my heart just in case yours breaks I'll give you my armor, my sword, and my cape When you're overburdened, I'll carry your weight After all, what's a knight with nobody to save? I'll put a smile on your face when you need one When you wanna quit, I’ll tell you to be strong And if everyone else in your life is to leave I’ll be there as the one you can lean on You might also like[Hook: x2] You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne Before you showed up, I was happy on my own Loving you is just like chasing ghosts [Bridge] Loving you is just like chasing ghosts Loving you is just like chasing OH! [Hook: x2] You've got a firm grip on my heart and my throat Thought I was king, you took my crown and my throne Before you showed up, I was happy on my own Loving you is just like chasing ghosts [Outro] Oh, it’s just like chasing ghosts |
