Ghost
Fading into the Night: Unveiling the Ghost Within
Lyrics
Slowly fading to black I can't find who I was
Describing a gradual disappearance or loss of self-identity, unable to recognize one's former self.
The warmth is leaving and I can't feel my lungs
Sensory perception fading away, feeling a loss of warmth and inability to breathe properly.
I'm feeling the slip in my grip and it's out of control
Sense of losing control or stability in life, experiencing a slip or decline that's overwhelming.
How much further do I have to fall?
Questioning the extent or depth of the continued downfall or decline.
I'm not dreaming that I'm still breathing
Realization that being alive isn't a dream, emphasizing the current existence.
I'm not dreaming that I'm nothing more than a Ghost
Feeling like an insignificant entity, reduced to merely a lingering, intangible presence like a ghost.
Just a distant memory of the better part of me
Being a distant memory of one's former, better self, highlighting a sense of loss or disconnection from that past.
And now it's cold and left buried alive
Feeling emotionally cold and buried alive, suggesting emotional numbness and suppression.
Under heart felt lies just to stay afloat
Using lies or falsehoods to survive emotionally, struggling to stay afloat despite difficult circumstances.
Floating in a world painted black and white
Feeling adrift or lost in a world lacking color or vibrancy, indicating a sense of detachment or alienation.
Trapped in a room built out of spite
Feeling confined or trapped in a situation created out of malice or resentment.
And fear I'll lose this fucking fight
Fear of losing a personal battle, possibly against inner demons or external forces.
And stay a slave to this hopeless plight
Worrying about being perpetually controlled or stuck in a hopeless situation.
So I'll set this world on fire
Expressing a desire to bring destruction or drastic change to the existing world or circumstances.
'Cause I'm leaving it all behind
Intention to leave everything behind, possibly indicating a desire for a fresh start or escape.
Maybe all that's left is a ghost fading into the night
Acceptance of possibly fading away into insignificance or obscurity like a ghost.
It's just a terrible host with a make-shift life
Feeling like an inadequate or unsuitable host to life's challenges and uncertainties.
I'm not dreaming that I'm still breathing
Reiteration of the struggle between the reality of being alive and the desire to escape it.
I'm not dreaming that I'm still breathing
Repeating the conflict between acknowledging existence and the wish to be free from it.
I'm still dreaming that I'm not breathing
Desire or dream of not being burdened by the act of breathing, possibly indicating a wish for relief from the struggles of life.
