“Haunted” is Dylan Longworth’s second release of 2020. Produced by Prxd. Jay, this song takes an extended metaphor of ghosts and apparitions and relates it to being haunted by past relationships
[Verse]
I hear the sounds of your breathing
Up late at night, I ain't sleeping, no
I saw your ghost in the mirror
Back in my life you’ve been creeping
I've been trying to find an escape
But up in my head you've been tryna invade, yeah
Now baby, my heart it ain’t beating
I can't control all the nightmares
I turn around and you're right there
I saw your ghost in the shadows
Swear that you've taken my life there
I've been tryna find a way out
Cause this ain't the way that I thought it'd play out, yeah
Your touch is as cold as the night air
[Hook]
Send shivers down my spine, every time you say goodbye

Feeling things I never wanted, tried to break but now I'm bonded
I can’t help but feel so haunted by you
So haunted by you
[Verse 2]
Demons they haunt and surround me
Thought I escaped but you found me
Darkness divine, walk beside me
Don’t let me stray from the light please
You know that I'm trying to escape
But since you’ve been here, oh I've been so afraid
You could've picked any, but why me?
[Hook]
Send shivers down my spine, every time you say goodbye
Just a shadow in the night, out of view
Feeling things I never wanted, tried to break but now I'm bonded
I can’t help but feel so haunted by you
So haunted by you
[Outro]
The ghosts of my exes they cry, "Oh"
'Cause they know that it's their time to go
The ghosts of my exes they cry, "Oh"
'Cause they know that it's their time to go

This song was a lot of fun to write! I wanted to take my usual song writing format, you know “I love this girl, she said she loved me, and then she left” and make it something different.
