Ghosts
Unveiling the Haunting Tapestry: Phil Campbell's Ghosts
Lyrics
Footsteps on the ceiling scratching at the walls
Feeling a sense of unease with mysterious noises above and around.
Hear something breathing, creeping in the halls
Hearing something unsettling and approaching in the corridors.
But I ain’t superstitious but the raven follows me
Expressing skepticism about superstitions while acknowledging a persistent symbol of doom (raven).
Turn the key can’t unlock the door take this voodoo away from me
Struggling to escape from a feeling of supernatural influence, possibly using the metaphor of voodoo.
All I see is ghosts they’re haunting me
Encountering and being troubled by apparitions or memories.
All I see is ghosts they’re make believe
Recognizing that the ghosts are not real, perhaps a coping mechanism to dismiss fears.
Feel something lurking eyes like daggers in my back
Sensing a threatening presence with piercing eyes.
The air’s turned thick I’m choking a candle flickers in the black
Experiencing a heavy and suffocating atmosphere, with a flickering candle symbolizing instability.
But I ain’t superstitious but the raven follows me
Reiterating a lack of belief in superstitions despite the persistent presence of the ominous raven.
Turn the key can’t unlock the door take this voodoo away from m
Struggling to escape the supernatural influence, seeking relief from voodoo.
All I see is ghosts they’re haunting me
Continuing to be haunted by unsettling apparitions or memories.
All I see is ghosts they’re make believe
Acknowledging that the ghosts are figments of imagination or not real.
Darkness falls across the land
Setting a spooky atmosphere as darkness falls.
The witching hour is close at hand
Indicating the approach of a mystical and eerie time (witching hour).
Werewolves howl
Describing the eerie sounds of werewolves howling.
And phantoms prowl
Referring to mysterious and elusive entities roaming.
I’m frozen now but all I see is ghosts
Feeling paralyzed, surrounded by the presence of ghosts.
Shadows dancing in the dark the whispers talk in tongues
Noticing shadows moving in the darkness and hearing mysterious whispers.
This haunted house will leave its mark something wicked this way
Implying that the haunted house will have a lasting impact, suggesting malevolence.
comes
Evoking a sense of impending danger.
But I ain’t superstitious but the raven follows me
Despite skepticism, the raven continues to be a foreboding presence.
Turn the key I’ve unlocked the door voodoo stay away from me
Having seemingly overcome the supernatural influence, warning it to stay away.
All I see is ghosts they’re haunting me
Still being haunted by disturbing apparitions or memories.
All I see is ghosts they’re make believe
Recognizing that the ghosts are not real, possibly as a way to cope.
All I see is ghosts they’re haunting me
Continuing to be haunted by unsettling apparitions or memories.
(They call to me)
Emphasizing the haunting nature of the ghosts and their call to the individual.
All I see is ghosts they’re make believe
Acknowledging that the ghosts are not real but are perceived or imagined.
(But I can see)
Recognizing the existence of the ghosts, possibly as a metaphor for internal struggles.
Darkness falls across the land
Setting a spooky atmosphere as darkness falls.
The witching hour is close at hand
Indicating the approach of a mystical and eerie time (witching hour).
Werewolves howl
Describing the eerie sounds of werewolves howling.
And phantoms prowl
Referring to mysterious and elusive entities roaming.
I’m frozen now but all I see is ghosts
Feeling paralyzed, surrounded by the presence of ghosts.
