Ghosts
Unveiling the Battle Within: Classic Jack's Haunting Journey
Lyrics
Let the fucking angels scream
Expressing a desire for a powerful, impactful expression.
Oh
An exclamation indicating a sudden emotion or realization.
Come now and pray for me
Asking for religious support or assistance.
Father I'm sorry for my faith started to fray
Expressing regret for losing faith.
I was smothered by the devil and your light faded away
Feeling overwhelmed by negative influences and losing connection to spirituality.
Demons never found a place in my room to stay
Implies an inability of demons to establish a permanent presence.
After a while the worst ones were trapped inside my brain
Referring to psychological struggles with persistent negative thoughts.
What oh what have have we been waiting for
Rhetorical questioning about anticipated change or significance.
Tell me that there's something more
Seeking assurance or validation of existence beyond the current situation.
Or are we wasting away
Questioning whether time is being wasted without purpose.
Oh why oh why are we still searching for
Continued questioning about the pursuit of meaning.
Meaning in these hopeless wars
Expressing skepticism about finding meaning in futile conflicts.
You'd think by now our ghosts would burn away
Expectation that lingering issues or haunting memories should have dissipated by now.
Fuck
An expletive expressing frustration or intensity.
Demons hold crosses but they teach that they hold flames
Symbolic contradiction: demons wield religious symbols but preach destruction.
Flip all of whats right to wrong and embed it in your brain
Suggests a reversal of moral norms being ingrained in thoughts.
What oh what have have we been waiting for
Repeated questioning about anticipated change or significance.
Tell me that there's something more
Seeking assurance or validation of existence beyond the current situation.
Or are we wasting away
Questioning whether time is being wasted without purpose.
Oh why oh why are we still searching for
Continued questioning about the pursuit of meaning.
Meaning in these hopeless wars
Expressing skepticism about finding meaning in futile conflicts.
You'd think by now our ghosts would burn away
Expectation that lingering issues or haunting memories should have dissipated by now.
The rules to this world are made by men like you and me
Statement about societal rules being established by ordinary individuals.
We are the cogs that grind to keep on all their machines
Comparing individuals to essential components that sustain societal systems.
The rules to this world are made by men like you and me
Reiteration of societal rules being determined by average people.
Who hide behind their gods and pull all our strings
Accusing those in power of using religion to control others.
They pull all of our strings
Reinforcing the idea of manipulation by those in control.
The rules to this world are made by men like you and me
Reiteration of societal rules being established by average individuals.
We are the cogs that grind to keep on all their machines (They pull all of our strings)
Reinforcement of the concept of manipulation by those in power.
The rules to this world are made by men like you and me
Reiteration of societal rules being determined by ordinary people.
Who hide behind their gods and pull all of our strings
Accusation of powerful individuals hiding behind religion to control others.
