Ghost in the Machine
Echoes of Lost Love: Richard Murray's Haunting Tale in 'Ghost in the Machine'
Lyrics
Rollin' on, I'm rollin' on
Expressing continuous movement or progress in life.
Dark as thunder to the dawn
Metaphorically describing a dark and intense period, leading to a new beginning.
Eyes like glass, lost and forlorn
Describing someone's eyes as reflective, conveying a sense of sadness and abandonment.
But I'm rollin' on
Reaffirming the determination to keep moving forward despite challenges.
I put her down in a yard of bones
Symbolizing a burial in a place filled with remains, possibly representing difficult experiences.
They blessed the ground, they cut the stone
Highlighting a ritualistic or sacred aspect to the burial, emphasizing its significance.
A voice came callin 'You've dug your own boy'
A voice warns of consequences, suggesting a realization of personal responsibility.
I put her down in a yard of bones
Repeating the burial imagery, indicating a profound impact or repetition of challenges.
She was the one she was the queen
Acknowledging the significance of a person, possibly a romantic partner or influential figure.
Now shes a ghost in the machine
Describing the person as now existing as a ghost in a mechanized world.
Shes all gone but still in me
Expressing the lingering presence and influence of the departed individual.
The ghost in the machine
Reiterating the idea of someone becoming a spectral presence within a technological context.
Its on my hands its in my veins
Indicating a personal connection through physical and emotional elements.
Her crimson blood it still remains
Symbolizing a lasting impact through the vivid memory of shared experiences.
But she kept me right when I'd smoked my brains
Highlighting how the person provided guidance during challenging times.
Its on my hands its in my veins
Reaffirming the enduring influence of the departed on the individual.
She was the one she was the queen
Repeating the acknowledgment of the person's importance and current spectral existence.
Now shes a ghost in the machine
Reiterating the theme of someone transitioning into a ghostly presence within technology.
Shes all gone but still in me
Emphasizing the continuing impact and connection with the departed individual.
The ghost in the machine
Repeating the concept of a person becoming a ghost within a mechanized environment.
You can never give up the ghost
Stating the challenge of letting go of the past or a departed person.
Sometimes you miss what you hate the most
Acknowledging the paradox of missing something intensely despite negative feelings.
Youth and beauty headin' south
Commenting on the inevitable decline of youth and beauty.
Cannon fire from the mouth
Using vivid imagery of cannon fire to depict harsh words or conflicts.
But I'll work and I'll take my time
Expressing determination to take one's time and face challenges with resilience.
And I'll sleep on the side that's mine
Describing a unique connection with the departed, even in dreams or memories.
When I roll over she kicks my mind
Highlighting the departed person's role in keeping the individual grounded.
She always kept my ass in line
Expressing a commitment to work and face challenges while remembering the departed.
Yea I'll work I'll take my time
Affirming the dedication to work and face life's challenges with patience and resilience.
