I wanted to write something like a death song like Last Kiss, only with the twist that the girl is dead BEFORE the guy falls in love with her. I wanted a quasi-necrophilliac vibe.

Fell in love with a girl
It went straight to my head
The one thing that I didn't know
Was that my girl was dead
She was the most
Why did she have to be a ghost

First time I saw her
She was too cute for words
Should have known that something was wrong
Cause I could see right through her
She was the best
Why did she have to be dead

(bridge)
Well, they say it'll never work
We're just two worlds apart
But I don't care that she's 400 years old
That ghost haunted my heart

Got a plan to make her mine
I'm gonna take my life
Maybe on the other side
I can make her my ghoulish wife
Tell the world goodbye
I'll see her on the other side
