"Haunted" is an unreleased song by Melanie Martinez. It was originally intended to be featured on her debut album, Cry Baby, however, the song was later scrapped.

The song is about how Cry Baby constantly thinks about a person who she loved. Every single thing that she does always reminds her of them. She tries to move on from them, but they always end up on her mind again.

Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
I could pull the sheets over my head, and never get out of this bed
But what would that do?
I avoid all mirrors 'cause I'm scared to look into my eyes
When I only see you

[Pre-chorus]
It's like you're always creepin'
On the walls and in my feelings
All those stories about ghosts
Are really true

[Chorus]
I put one foot in front of the other, in front of the other
Slowly, I turn every corner, turn every corner
Even when you're nowhere in the room
I'm haunted by you

I light all my candles, light all my candles
The darkness is too hard to handle, too hard to handle
Sleeping is just something I can't do
I'm haunted by you

[Verse 2]
I can hear you talking in the distance, your persistence
Is so cruel, and all your words pull at my feet
And I fall back in love with you
What can I do?

[Pre-chorus]
It's like you're always creeping
On the walls and in my feelings
All those stories about ghosts
Are really true

[Chorus]
I put one foot in front of the other, in front of the other
Slowly, I turn every corner, turn every corner
Even when you're nowhere in the room
I'm haunted by you

I light all my candles, light all my candles
The darkness is too hard to handle, too hard to handle
Sleeping is just something I can't do

[Bridge]
We used to be so warm
But now we're just an ice storm
Slowly freezing up my heart
We used to be so warm
But now we're just an ice storm
Slowly freezing up my heart
Heart
Heart

[Chorus]
I put one foot in front of the other, in front of the other
Slowly, I turn every corner, turn every corner
Even when you're nowhere in the room
I'm haunted by you

I light all my candles, light all my candles
The darkness is too hard to handle, too hard to handle
Sleeping is just something I can't do
I'm haunted by you
