Ode To A Ghost
Navigating Pain and Loss: Ode To A Ghost by Combo Move
Lyrics
I wish that I could take all your pain,
I desire to bear and alleviate all the pain you are experiencing.
And breathe it in for myself
I wish to take in your pain personally, as if I could absorb it.
The red spots, that turned brown in a day
Referring to physical marks, the color change indicates a rapid change in a situation.
It felt different this time around
This experience feels distinct or unusual compared to previous occurrences.
And there's no fucking way that I can help you now
I acknowledge my inability to assist you in your current state of suffering.
I never thought that I'd miss you
Contrary to expectations, I find myself longing for your presence.
At least nothing that felt, like this
This yearning is intense and unlike any previous emotions.
No, you can never prepare for the hard times
It is impossible to fully prepare for difficult times.
I don't pray and I'm not convinced
I neither engage in prayer nor am fully convinced of its efficacy.
Sleepless nights where I dreamt of the worst
Nights of insomnia filled with distressing dreams about the worst possible scenarios.
And now I'm dreaming alone, I wish you were here
Currently, I find myself dreaming alone, yearning for your presence.
But times pass, and we live with our ghosts
As time progresses, we coexist with memories and regrets.
Can't save a moment, it disappears
We cannot preserve a moment; it inevitably fades away.
What's out of focus all at once becomes so clear
Things that were unclear or unimportant suddenly become evident.
Maybe we kill our desire
Possibly, suppressing our desires can lead to a numbness within.
To feel nothing inside at all
Suggesting that extinguishing emotions may result in feeling empty.
If that's enlightenment give fire
If this lack of emotion is considered enlightenment, it is akin to setting oneself on fire.
Got big hopes, but I feel so small
Despite having ambitious aspirations, I feel insignificant or inadequate.
