In The Blue
Echoes of Longing: Arcane Ghosts' 'In The Blue' Unveiled
Lyrics
Last summer you saw the clock on
Last summer, a significant event occurred, and attention was drawn to a clock.
The wall
The clock was on the wall, suggesting a visible and constant presence.
Where'd you find her you know she stands so tall
The speaker questions where someone found a person who exudes confidence and stature.
Like a ghost in the night but I don't wanna fight
Comparing the person to a ghost in the night, the speaker expresses a desire to avoid conflict.
Grandfather you know you fake me out
A reference to the grandfather who deceives or misleads the speaker.
Where'd you find her
The speaker inquires about where this mysterious person was found.
I have to say I have to say
An affirmation of having something to say, building anticipation.
You found a gem facing down on the floor
The discovered person is described as a gem lying on the floor.
Do you want it? OH do you want it
Possibly questioning the listener's desire or willingness to keep what they've found.
Do you want to stay? I just want you to fake me out
Expressing a desire for deception or illusion instead of confrontation.
Home is so damn close to you
Proximity to home is emphasized, suggesting a strong connection or familiarity.
Push me back so it's never true
A plea to avoid facing harsh realities, possibly through denial.
Paint this picture in the blue
An artistic description of creating a soothing, blue-toned mental image.
Cause Home is so close to you
Reiterating the closeness of home, reinforcing a sense of comfort.
Oh you never wanna take it back
A reluctance to revisit or reconsider past actions.
Why don't you ever take it back
Questioning why certain actions or decisions are irreversible.
How many times do you have to pull this line
Expressing frustration with repetitive patterns and limited time.
I'm getting sick and tired of running out of time with nowhere else to go
A feeling of being trapped with no alternative options.
I'm standing on my own
Asserting independence and self-reliance.
You know fake me out
A plea to create an illusion or deceive instead of facing reality.
You know you fake me out
Repetition of the desire for deception or illusion.
Home is so damn close to you
Reiteration of the theme of proximity to home and comfort.
Push me back so it's never true
A request to avoid acknowledging unpleasant truths.
Paint this picture in the blue
Describing the creation of a calming, blue-themed mental image.
Cause Home is so close to you
Emphasizing the comfort and closeness of home once again.
I'm standing right in front of you
The speaker is physically present and waiting for acknowledgment.
I'm standing right in front of you
Repetition of standing in front, implying readiness and visibility.
There's nothing more that I could do
A resignation that there's nothing more the speaker can do.
I'm standing right in front of you
Reiteration of being present and waiting for recognition.
Home is so damn close to you
Reemphasizing the closeness of home and the desire to avoid truth.
Push me back so it's never true
Request to maintain a false reality and avoid acknowledging the truth.
Paint this picture in the blue
Depicting the creation of a calming, blue-toned mental image.
Cause Home is so close to you
Final emphasis on the proximity and comfort of home.
