Like A Ghost
Haunting Echoes: Unveiling the Ghostly Depths of 'Like A Ghost'
Lyrics
I don't know why you still haunt my mind
I am uncertain why your presence continues to occupy my thoughts
Broken hopes flawed by design
Expectations and dreams are shattered due to inherent flaws in their structure
Beneath a vacant godless sky
Beneath a sky devoid of purpose or divine influence
I watch the world pass me by
I observe life progressing without active participation
You could never see it through
You were unable to perceive the truth
All those things you only start to do
Tasks and commitments that you only initiate but never complete
Now I see the reality
I now comprehend the harsh reality
Now I see right through you
I can now see through your façade
Like a ghost
Repeated emphasis on the metaphorical presence of a ghost
Like a ghost
-Like a ghost
-When I need you the most you always disappear
During times of need, you consistently vanish
Like a ghost
Reiteration of the ghostly disappearance
Now I just can't bear your sight
Your presence has become unbearable to me
It tortures me in the quiet nights
Painful torment experienced during quiet and reflective nights
There's a lingering residue
A lingering residue of emotions
A trigger in the shape of you
An emotional trigger in the form of your image
My reflection in the fractured mirror
My reflection in a broken mirror
You make me question in you're really here
Your existence makes me question if you are truly present
A brief glimpse into the ether
A fleeting glimpse into the intangible
Then once again you disappear
Followed by another disappearance
Like a ghost
Reiteration of the ghostly metaphor
Like a ghost
-Like a ghost
-When I need you the most you always disappear
Consistent disappearance during times of greatest need
Like a ghost
Reiteration of the ghostly theme
You could never see it through
Similar to line 5, emphasizing the inability to perceive reality
All those things you only start to do
Repetition of tasks started but left incomplete
Now I see the reality
Recognition of the harsh truth
Now I see right through you
A newfound ability to see through deception
Like a ghost
Reiteration of the ghost metaphor
Like a ghost
-Like a ghost
-When I need you the most you always disappear
Consistent disappearance during times of need
Like a ghost
Reiteration of the ghostly theme
Like a ghost
-Like a ghost
-When I need you the most you always disappear
Consistent disappearance during moments of greatest need
