Ghost In Your Stereo
Echoes of Unresolved Desire: Ghost In Your Stereo Meaning
Lyrics
Tombstones climbing up the sky
Tombstones rising high into the sky
To claim the boredom of the whine of the radiator
To acknowledge the monotony of the sound produced by the radiator
To freeze the fates that intertwine
To halt or freeze the destinies that are interconnected
Unresolved and undefined in this echo chamber
Unresolved and indefinite situations within this space of repetition and echoes
Once you’ve given up the ghost
Once you've given up completely
Just like Lazarus you’ll know there’s an operator
Similar to the biblical story of Lazarus, there's an entity or force orchestrating revival or change
Some strange passenger inside
An unfamiliar or mysterious presence residing within
To that strange power I’m resigned like an iron anchor
I've accepted or surrendered to that unknown power like a steadfast and immovable force
I’m just a ghost in your stereo
I am like an apparition existing within your music playback system
The fading memory of a shipwreck in the undertow
A vanishing memory reminiscent of a shipwreck pulled under the water's current
You’re just a lost song I wrote
You, the listener, are merely a song that I've lost or left behind
And i’m just a ghost in your stereo
I am just a spectral presence within your music system
Ghost
Reiteration of the word "Ghost" symbolizing the spectral or intangible presence
You move on a thousand times
You've moved on numerous times
New lover’s shadows on the blinds
New partners' silhouettes seen through the window blinds
Your heart’s a mercenary
Your heart is like a hired soldier, seeking various attachments or relationships
But like a dancer on the wire
Similar to a tightrope walker, despite risks, you navigate through intense desires
Come the sparks of frayed desire as the fire’s carried
The emergence of passionate sparks as the fire continues to be sustained
I’m just a ghost in your stereo
Repeated reference to being a spectral entity within the music system
The fading memory of a shipwreck in the undertow
A fading memory akin to a sunken ship's wreckage in the pull of the water
You’re just a lost song I wrote
You, the listener, are akin to a song that has been lost or forgotten
And i’m just a ghost in your stereo
Reiteration of being a ghostly presence within the music system
