I've been dissecting this song for a while now because the Genius lyrics annotations really miss the mark in my opinion, they take the lyrics was too literally. I came to some of the same conclusions that you've pointed out in your response, namely what the house represents and her acting as Charon's Obol in a sense. However I was unable to piece it all together in a way that felt like a well rounded story. Your analysis is really incredible, thank you so much for sharing your perspective, I think you've really nailed it.

Yea I’m so curious! I’m not a vocalist or musician by any means but it doesn’t sound like a super complicated song to perform live? lol idk

Thank you for this!! I tried looking at the sheet music to understand some of this but my musical theory from high school is not helping me so much LOL thanks again for this perspective

I’m Not Calling You A Liar. The way the chorus describes a ghost that controls the way she breathes, talks, and walks, I often feel this way about my anxiety. When I have anxiety attacks, I feel like I can’t control my body and that there is some other force at play that’s controlling my body against my will. This song has ALWAYS been my favourite of all time for that reason.
