Look a Ghost is the second track off of Unwound’s final album, Leaves Turn Inside You
The song outlines the story of finding out a girl that they used to have a crush on actually ended up liking them back.
Despite knowing this, they’re still hesitant on how to approach her.
[Verse 1]
You knew her from before
She hid behind the door
You never noticed that
The hallways turned to black
The stairway is a chance
To fall and break your hands
She just might push you down
So never turn around
[Chorus]
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
[Verse 2]
Watch out, she's fading fast
You just might lose your chance
Find out by accident
The reason she is back
So now you're scared of her
Cause she might not return
Mistook you for someone
One look and now she's gone
[Chorus]
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
[Bridge]
Look, a ghost came through the door
From a thousand years before
Look, a ghost came through the door
From a thousand years before
Look, a ghost came through the door
From a thousand years before
Look, a ghost came through the door
From a thousand years before
[Chorus]
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
She never had a chance
She never had a chance
So now she's coming back for you
