Evergreen House
Eternal Echoes: Evergreen House's Ghost and Vanishing Memories
Lyrics
A ghost wonders the halls of Evergreen House
A ghost wanders the halls of Evergreen House
He looks at the paintings of those who had past
He observes paintings depicting those who have passed away
The Mr and Mrs, who would dance in the frames
The portraits of Mr. and Mrs. who used to dance in frames
The children who play, in the cracked oil paint
Depiction of children playing in cracked oil paint
He sits and he cries, about what he has lost
The ghost sits and mourns the things he has lost
Only phantom tears drop, into the fog
His tears are phantom, falling into the fog
And below the wooden floors boards, the owners can hear
Below the wooden floorboards, owners hear his cries as he walks among his peers
His cries and his weeps, as he walks through his peers
Expressing sorrow and weeping in the afterlife
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Repetition of ghostly sounds, possibly emphasizing the haunting atmosphere
He thinks he's alone, so he thinks of before
The ghost believes he is alone and reflects on the past
The living room, a library, the study, much more
Recollection of various rooms in Evergreen House
But the more that he thinks back, his memory gets mudy
The more he remembers, the hazier his memory becomes
Though remembers the good parts and the times that were lovely
Despite the foggy memory, he cherishes the good and lovely moments
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Reiteration of ghostly sounds, continuing the haunting theme
So the ghost who wanders the Evergreen House
The ghost still dreams of his family lost to the past
Still dreams of his family lost to the past
Similarities drawn between the ghost's loss and the portrayed Mr. and Mrs.
Like the Mr and Mrs who once danced in the street
Recollection of a time when the Mr. and Mrs. danced in the street
And smiles at the memories he decided to keep
The ghost smiles at the memories he chooses to retain
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Repetition of ghostly sounds, possibly indicating a lingering presence
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Continuation of haunting atmosphere and emotional resonance
Ooo, ooo, ooo
Reiteration of ghostly sounds, emphasizing the lingering and timeless nature of loss
