Ghost Town
Navigating Turmoil: Seeking Refuge in a Ghost Town
Lyrics
Light a match and burn this all down
Expressing a desire to destroy or eradicate everything, possibly as a symbolic act of starting anew.
Suffocate the voices in doubt
Wanting to silence the inner voices of uncertainty and insecurity.
Nothing here is falling in place
Describing a sense of disorder or chaos, where things are not falling into their proper places.
A map that points to all our mistakes
Referring to a map that highlights past errors and wrong turns in life.
Too much to handle too much to take
Feeling overwhelmed and burdened by life's challenges.
This is a ghost town
Characterizing the current state as desolate or abandoned, devoid of life or meaningful connections.
Too far to go to get to here
Expressing a sense of distance or difficulty in reaching the present situation.
Too much of this sound
Overwhelmed by the intensity of a particular sound or situation.
I need a light, I need to know when I can break out
Seeking guidance or a signal to know when it's possible to break free from the challenges.
Tell me it's safe now
Repetition emphasizes the plea for reassurance and safety.
Tell me it's safe now
-Spiders crawling down from the walls
Using spiders as a metaphor for hidden fears or threats creeping in.
They might be listening to this call
Suggesting a fear of being monitored or judged.
Are you even all that you say?
Raising doubts about the authenticity of someone's identity or intentions.
The chemicals, they make me this way
Attributing personal struggles or behavior to external factors like chemicals or influences.
Too much to handle, much too late
Expressing a feeling of being overwhelmed, possibly too late to address the challenges.
This is a ghost town
Reiterating the desolation and emptiness of the current situation.
Too far to go to get to hear too much of this sound
Emphasizing the difficulty in reaching a desirable state due to the overwhelming background noise.
I need a sign I need to know when I can break out
Expressing a need for a sign or indication to break free from the current circumstances.
Tell me it's safe now
Repeatedly seeking confirmation of safety and security.
Tell me it's safe now
-When everybody acts like a game
Questioning the authenticity of human interactions, wondering if they are merely a game or a form of pretense.
Are we really just filling space
Contemplating whether human actions serve a genuine purpose or if they are merely filling empty spaces.
But all the pieces, they don't add up to none
Suggesting that despite efforts, the elements or aspects of life don't come together to form a meaningful whole.
Too much to handle, much to take
Reiterating the overwhelming nature of the challenges faced.
This is a ghost town
Reiterating the desolation and emptiness of the current situation.
Too far to go to get to here too much of this sound
Emphasizing the difficulty in reaching a desirable state due to the overwhelming background noise.
I need a light, I need to know when I can break out
Expressing a need for a sign or indication to break free from the current circumstances.
Tell me it's safe now
Repeatedly seeking confirmation of safety and security.
Tell me it's safe now
-Light a match and burn this all down
Repeating the initial desire to destroy everything, possibly as a symbolic act of renewal.
