Haunted
TEGOS.RU/BEYONCE Lyrics

The winner is
I have won the award for best female pop vocalist.

I would like to thank the judges for picking me
I am grateful to the judges for selecting me as the winner.

My parents who I love
I would like to express my love and appreciation for my parents.

I love you Houston
I have a great affection for the city of Houston.

And I've been drifting off on knowledge
I have been gaining knowledge and experience through my career and personal life.

Cat-calls on cat-walks, man these women getting solemn
I am observing the objectification of women in the fashion industry.

I could sing a song for a Solomon or Salamander
I have the ability to sing to anyone, regardless of their identity or status.

We took a flight at midnight and now my mind can't help but wander
I recently took a late-night flight and my mind is still preoccupied with thoughts of it.

How come?
I am questioning why my mind is still wandering.

Spoon-fed pluralized eyes to find the beaches in the forest
People are taught to see and find things that don't necessarily exist or make sense.

When I'm looking off the edge, I preach my gut it can't help but ignore it
Although I am hesitant about some things, I often ignore my instincts and take risks.

I'm climbing up the walls 'cause all the shit I hear is boring
I am bored with the mundane and repetitive nature of what I hear and experience.

All the shit I do is boring
Even the things I do are no longer exciting or interesting to me.

All these record labels boring
The music industry has become dull and uninteresting to me due to the commercialization and standardization of music.

I don't trust these record labels I'm torn
I have mixed feelings about record labels and don't trust them completely.

All these people on the planet Working 9 to 5, just to stay alive The 9 to 5, just to stay alive The 9 to 5, just to stay alive The 9 to 5, just to stay alive The 9 to 5, just to stay alive The 9 to 5, just to stay alive All the people on the planet Working 9 to 5 just to stay alive How come?
I am pondering why so many people have to work mundane and repetitive jobs just to survive on this planet.

What goes up, ghost around Ghost around What goes up, ghost around Ghost around Around Around Around Around Around Around Around
Things that go up don't always come back down, but instead, they haunt us and continue to exist in some way.

Soul not for sale Probably won't make no money off this, oh well Reap what you sow Perfection is so mmm
I am recognizing that my soul and authenticity are not for sale and that I may not make much money from my music, but I am still content with what I reap from my efforts.

It's what you do It's what you see I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
If I am affecting or influencing you in some way, then you must also be affecting or influencing me.

It's where we go It's where we'll be I know if I'm on to you, I'm on to you On to you, you must be on to me
If we are going to the same places and sharing similar experiences, then we must also be aware of each other's presence in some way.

My haunted lungs Ghost in the sheets I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
I feel haunted and affected by something or someone, and I know that they are also feeling the same way in some capacity.

My wicked tongue Where will it be? I know if I'm onto you, I'm on to you On to you, I'm on to you On to you, you must be on to me
I am aware that my words and actions may have negative consequences, and if I am aware of someone else's actions or words, then they must also be aware of mine in some way.

You want me? I walk down the hallway You're lucky The bedroom's my runway Slap me! I'm pinned to the doorway Kiss, bite My haunted lungs (foreplay) Ghost in the sheets I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
I acknowledge that my sexual and sensual desires may be affecting someone else, and if I am affecting them in that way, then they are also affecting me in some way.
