Bastille - Haunt

Copied!

{Intro}
Oh
Oh
Oh, oh
Oh

{Verse 1}
We'll make our agreements about when to meet
And I'll leave you in the doorway
The cold evening aches as it leaves in its wake
All the memories left by the day
Oh, I'm questioning why as you look to the sky
That is cloudless up above our heads
And thoughts come to mind, how our short little lives
Haven't left the path that they will tread
They will tread

{Chorus}
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah

{Verse 2}
Will wisdom we learn as our minds, they do burn
All the ties to naivety and youth
As adults, we'll grow and maturity shows
Oh, the terrifying rarity of truth
As you turn to your mind and your thoughts, they rewind
To old happenings and things that are done
You can't find what's past, make that happiness last
Seeing from those eyes what you've become
What you've become

{Chorus}
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you

{Bridge}
I will see you there
See you there
See you there
I will see you there
See you there
See you there

{Outro}
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you

edit bio

Bastille is a British indie pop band that first burst onto the music scene in 2010. The band initially gained attention after releasing a limited single in 2010 and the Laura Palmer EP in 2011. Following this, they were signed to Virgin Records, where they would go on to release their debut album, Bad Blood, in March 2013.

Before the release of Bad Blood, Bastille released two mixtapes for free – Other People’s Heartache and Other People’s Heartache Pt. 2 – showcasing their unique sound and style. Lead singer Dan Smith discussed the mixtapes in an interview, revealing that the label was initially against the idea due to the illegal sampling and stealing of music.

The band found commercial success with singles like “Overjoyed”, “Bad Blood”, and “Flaws”, but it was their fourth single, “Pompeii”, that truly catapulted them into the charts. The song became a massive hit, going 5x Platinum worldwide and becoming the most streamed song in the United Kingdom at the time.

In November 2013, Bastille reissued Bad Blood as All This Bad Blood, including bonus tracks and the mixtapes that had gained them attention in the first place. Following this, the band released their second mixtape, VS. (Other People’s Heartache Pt. III), in 2014.

In September 2016, Bastille released their highly anticipated sophomore album, Wild World, further solidifying their place in the music industry. In June 2019, the band released their third studio album, Doom Days, described by Dan as an “apocalyptic party album.” An extended version of the album was later released in December 2019.

Bastille consists of lead singer Dan Smith, keyboardist Kyle Simmons, bassist and guitarist Will Farquarson, and drummer Chris “Woody” Wood. With their unique sound and captivating performances, Bastille continues to captivate audiences around the world with their infectious indie pop tunes.
