Haunted Lyrics

The winner is
Beyonce Knowles female pop vocalist

I would like to thank the judges for picking me
My parents who I love
I love you Houston

And I've been drifting off on knowledge
Cat-calls on cat-walks, man these women getting solemn
I could sing a song for a Solomon or Salamander
We took a flight at midnight and now my mind can't help but wander
How come?
Spoon-fed pluralized eyes to find the beaches in the forest
When I'm looking off the edge, I preach my gut it can't help but ignore it
I'm climbing up the walls 'cause all the shit I hear is boring
All the shit I do is boring
All these record labels boring
I don't trust these record labels I'm torn
All these people on the planet
Working 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive
All the people on the planet
Working 9 to 5 just to stay alive
How come?

What goes up, ghost around
Ghost around
What goes up, ghost around
Ghost around

Around
Around
Around
Around
Around
Around
Around

Soul not for sale
Probably won't make no money off this, oh well
Reap what you sow
Perfection is so mmm

It's what you do
It's what you see
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me

It's where we go
It's where we'll be
I know if I'm on to you, I'm on to you
On to you, you must be on to me

My haunted lungs
Ghost in the sheets
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me

My wicked tongue
Where will it be?
I know if I'm onto you, I'm on to you
On to you, I'm on to you
On to you, you must be on to me

You want me?
I walk down the hallway
You're lucky
The bedroom's my runway
Slap me!
I'm pinned to the doorway
Kiss, bite

My haunted lungs (foreplay)
Ghost in the sheets
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me

My wicked tongue
Where will it be
I know if I'm onto you, you must be onto me

It's what we see
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
It's where we go
It's where we'll be
I know if I'm onto you, I'm onto you
Onto you, I'm onto you
Onto you, you must be onto me
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)

Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)

What is the Meaning of Haunted?

This piece explores the pressures and disillusionment of fame, while also delving into themes of desire and haunting. The singer expresses her dissatisfaction with the music industry, symbolized by her reference to 'boring' record labels. The repetitive mention of '9 to 5' underlines the monotonous grind that even successful artists can experience. Yet, intertwined with this critique, there's a sensual exploration of attraction and obsession. The repeated phrase "I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me" suggests a mutual fixation that is both intoxicating and unsettling - much like fame itself. Thus, the song presents an intricate tapestry of success's darker shades while illuminating an intense romantic entanglement.
