Falling for someone when in reality they weren’t looking for the same can sting. Sad Alex delivers on her intentions to bring together “fellow ghostees,” as the track is filled with understandable lyrics and a lively vibe.Ī new relationship can have a lasting impact in a short period of time, but it is sometimes only one-sided. I see your face turning into a shadow Now I’m sober and October’s almost over Uh oh now, where’d you go? You opened the door, I’ve fallen for a ghost now And I’ll keep aching while you keep fading away Stockholm’s a ghost town now Uh oh now, where’d you go? The sheets on the floor, I’ve fallen for a ghost now And I’ll keep aching while you keep fading away Stockholm’s a ghost town now I swear I didn’t know a thing about ya Maybe I said too much You got me feelin nostalgia But when the lights come on I wanted something that felt less ‘woe is me, I’ve been ghosted’ and more ‘come together all ye fellow ghostees.’ Mix that with some bomb Swedish melodies and a sprinkle of Ed Sheeran, and you’ve got yourself my favorite song I’ve released to date.” ‘Cause in the dark of this hotel bar “A few days later, I visited the songwriting school called Musikmakarna in NorthernSweden and wrote this with Axel Anderlund, Jonna Jaqueline, and Tobias Naslund. My wine-fueled weeping was overdramatic but had more to do with the years of being ghosted than this nice Swedish guy.” “It was an over-romanticized fling that started with rom-com fireworks on a hotel rooftop and ended with unanswered texts in a smelly Airbnb. “I wrote this song after I managed to get my heart broken in a weeklong trip to Stockholm, the LA-based artist says of her release. Sometimes it’s simple: they just fade out of the relationship which only leads to heartbreak on the other end. It can take just one more person to ghost a relationship that triggers an inner monologue, questioning why it keeps happening. The best of people are perceived, not knowing if they truly feel the same. Games are played and any kind of commitment can scare away free-spirited ones. The investment in a new relationship can be fast, but just as soon as it starts, it can end. Like i’m some cheap date I must be a stage 5 sucker for Believing the things that you feel Does it scare you that we could be real? My heart’s only human But knows when it’s losing you The short-lived lust in a relationship disappearing into thin air. It can lead to doubt and questioning of one’s behavior and trying to figure out what went wrong. Connections can seem apparent and the next day the person is non-existent, with no explanation. In the world of today’s dating apps and technology, ghosting is all too familiar. The track is a perfectly crafted, cheeky way to write about a sometimes difficult reality to swallow: ghosting. It touches upon feelings of longing and nostalgia for a relationship that ended without a trace.
