Ghosts
Embracing Solitude: Unveiling the Haunting Depths of 'Ghosts' by Adam Araque
Lyrics
I miss the ghosts from my old house
The speaker longs for the apparitions from their previous residence.
The ones that always used to freak me out
Reflecting on unsettling entities that were a constant presence before.
I haven't seen them for a while
Expressing a hiatus in encountering these spectral figures.
I miss the demons in my dreams
Nostalgically missing the nightmarish visions in their dreams.
This current nightmare is the new reality
The current distressing dream has become the new harsh reality.
I used to believe anything
Recalling a past when belief came effortlessly.
I've got these feelings I can't shake
Unshakeable emotions that persist within the speaker.
Is this a permanent headspace?
Questioning whether this mental state is enduring.
I think there is someone in my house now
Suspecting the presence of someone in their current dwelling.
So why am I no longer afraid?
Curious about the absence of fear despite the perceived threat.
I think that I am unphased
Feeling unaffected or indifferent to the potential danger.
My thoughts have been drowning the footsteps out
Intrusive thoughts overpowering external stimuli.
This house is cursed with the decay
Describing the house as tainted with lingering heartaches.
Of residual heartbreaks
Highlighting the persistence of romantic ideals fading in the space.
Everything that's romantic dies in this place
Emphasizing the demise of romanticism in the haunted environment.
This house is shrouded in silence
Characterizing the house with an eerie silence.
Now this whole town is quiet
Expanding the quietness to encompass the entire town.
If I had an escape plan then why did I stay?
Questioning the decision to stay despite having an escape plan.
I found my greatest fear right now
Identifying the current greatest fear: isolation in a large house.
A big house with no one else around
Expressing the presence of silent ghosts left behind.
Now I'm left with ghost who don't ever speak
Desiring new haunting experiences beyond the silent ghosts.
I need something else to haunt me
Expressing extreme loneliness and a need for something more.
I have never been so lonely
Desperation for connection, possibly resorting to a ghostly disguise.
Just hand me the ghost sheet
Yearning for communication from the spectral entities.
I wish that these phantoms would talk back
Wishing for the ghosts to respond or communicate back.
I just wanna make contact
Expressing a desire to establish contact with the paranormal.
(If the evidence is absent what's there to believe?)
Raising a philosophical question about belief in the absence of evidence.
The things that I once was afraid of
Revealing that past fears were fabricated and not genuine.
Was shit I just made up
Acknowledging the self-created nature of previous anxieties.
(I have never been so lonely just hand me the ghost sheet)
Reiterating the intense loneliness and the desire for a ghostly connection.
I found my greatest fear right now
Repeating the current fear of isolation in a spacious dwelling.
A big house with no one else around
Echoing the presence of silent ghosts and the desire for more interaction.
Now I'm left with ghost who don't ever speak
Reiterating the need for something more haunting than silent ghosts.
I need something else to haunt me
Expressing skepticism towards supernatural stories.
I've become a skeptic
Declaring a shift to a more rational and disbelieving perspective.
These stories are no longer that effective on me
Reflecting on the diminishing impact of frightening tales on the speaker.
Sometimes I can't breathe
Admitting moments of breathlessness, possibly due to anxiety.
I just need an autopilot for this body
Expressing a desire for an automatic response to navigate life.
Somebody please possess me
Pleading for a form of possession, perhaps to escape loneliness.
I have never been so lonely
Reiterating intense feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Just hand me the ghost sheet
Yearning for a ghostly presence or connection.
