Mother Mother – Ghosting Lyrics 10 years ago
To me this song is about not being noticed. I don't think it's a single entity, for the word "you" is very generalized, though I think it is implied towards everyone important in Mother Mother's life. Refusing to be yourself in fear of losing them, knowing that you wouldn't be accepted as you truly are. When you Mother Mother made the decision to reveal how they actually were, he left. As previously mentioned, he was confident he wouldn't be accepted.

And this is why I have decided
To pull these old white sheets from my head
I'll leave them folded neat and tidy
So that you'll know I'm out of hiding

And this is why I have decided
To leave your house and home unhaunted
You don't need poltergeist for sidekicks
You don't need treats and you don't need tricks
