Lyrics
the throat is deep and the mouth is wide
saw some things on the other side
made me promise to never tell
you know me i can't help myself, no
now i got something you have to see
they put something inside of me
its smile is red and its eyes are black
i don't think i'll be coming back

i don't believe and i
i had to see
came back haunted
came back haunted
i said goodbye and i
i had to try and i
came back haunted
came back haunted

everywhere now reminding me
i am not who i used to be
i'm afraid this has just begun
consequences for what i've done

i don't believe and i
i had to see
came back haunted
came back haunted
i said goodbye and i
i had to try and i
came back haunted
came back haunted
you tried to tell me but i
i couldn't stop myself now i
came back haunted
came back haunted

just can't stop
came back haunted
