On his international radio show, Sir Elton John declared that he “loved that LOONY”, after playing her 2020 single “GOOD GAME” .

Ghosts
LOONY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wear the night like my clothes
Something about you chill my body to the bone
'Cause you're a dark cloud
And you're rolling my way
Looking for trouble, gonna find it
Fuckin' with me
You know you put me in a damn mood
And if we're being honest
Never could explain how we align
Never could explain the timeline
Of old ghosts
And if we're being honest
Think I'd rather stay on this side
It's unspoken
Unspoken
Another sad, sad song
Wound is still fresh and sore
Something about you turn my blood real cold
'Cause you're a dark cloud and you're rolling my way
Looking for trouble, gonna find it
Fuckin' with me, yeah
You know I feel you across the damn room
Wish it wasn't new, being with you
And if they ever found us
Never could explain how we align
Never could explain the timeline
Of old ghosts
And if we're being honest
Think I'd rather stay on this side
It's unspoken
But the veil's thin, woah
In LOONY's song "Ghosts," the artist sings about her complicated and often tumultuous relationship with someone who seems to bring trouble and a sense of darkness with them wherever they go. LOONY compares this person to a "dark cloud" rolling her way, and the lyrics suggest that despite the powerful pull of their connection, being with this person also comes with risks and downsides. Earlier in the opening verse, LOONY sings about feeling cold and chilled by this person's presence, further reinforcing the sense of unease and discomfort they bring into her life.
Despite the difficulties of their relationship, LOONY also acknowledges that there is something powerful and unusual about how they've connected. She sings, "Never could explain how we align / Never could explain the timeline / Of old ghosts." The use of the phrase "old ghosts" suggests that this connection between them has deep roots and perhaps even shadows from the past that they can't quite shake. LOONY also notes that these feelings are "unspoken," highlighting that there is a sense of mystery or incomprehensibility about their relationship that defies easy explanation.
Overall, "Ghosts" is a haunting and introspective song about the complexities of relationships and how they can both lift us up and weigh us down at the same time. LOONY's lyrics capture the contradictions and nuances of human connections in a way that feels raw and emotionally resonant.
Line by Line Meaning
Another one on my own
I am alone once again
I wear the night like my clothes
I embrace the darkness around me
Something about you chill my body to the bone
You give me a feeling of immense coldness
'Cause you're a dark cloud
You bring darkness, gloominess and anxiety
And you're rolling my way
You are coming towards me
Looking for trouble, gonna find it
You are looking for problems and intend to cause them
Fuckin' with me
You are messing with me
You know you put me in a damn mood
You know you affect my emotions greatly
I got a lot to lose, being with you
I have a lot at stake if I am with you
And if we're being honest
To be truthful
Never could explain how we align
I cannot explain how we fit together
Never could explain the timeline
I cannot explain the sequence of events
Of old ghosts
Of past memories that haunt me
Think I'd rather stay on this side
I think I would choose to stay where I am
It's unspoken
It is not verbalized
Another sad, sad song
Another song of sorrow
Wound is still fresh and sore
My pain is still raw
Something about you turn my blood real cold
You give me a feeling of immense coldness
'Cause you're a dark cloud and you're rolling my way
You bring darkness, gloominess and anxiety towards me
You know I feel you across the damn room
I can sense your presence from far away
Wish it wasn't new, being with you
I wish I had prior experience of being with you
And if they ever found us
If we were ever discovered
But the veil's thin, woah
But the division between us is unclear
