Princess Anne St
Midnight Revelry on Princess Anne St: Ghosts, Freemasons, and Deistic Excuses
Lyrics
It's 1am we go downtown
Beginning of the night, heading downtown.
Old folks drinking dancing around
Elderly people enjoying themselves, dancing.
It's a party at the city dock
Describing a lively gathering at the city dock.
Freemasons in their graves
Reference to Freemasons in their resting places.
Reading what their tombstones say
Reflecting on the inscriptions on tombstones.
I listen to you as we walk
Listening to a companion while walking.
I don't don't believe in the spirit
Expressing skepticism about spiritual beliefs.
That followed us through Princess Anne St
Denying the presence of a spirit on Princess Anne St.
We talk about her all night
Conversations focused on a female character.
I see her dressed in white
Imagining the mentioned woman in a white dress.
Everything here has a ghost
Claiming that everything in the area has a ghostly presence.
The coffee shops and one way roads
Listing specific places with ghostly associations.
We're the only ones alive
Suggesting a feeling of solitude as the only living beings.
Greyscale is the scene
Describing a scene in shades of gray, possibly gloomy.
Except I'm red, you're aquamarine
Highlighting a contrast between the speaker and the companion.
She is watching us
Sensing a presence observing them.
I don't don't believe in the spirit
Reiterating disbelief in the spiritual aspect of Princess Anne St.
That followed us through Princess Anne St
Reaffirming the lack of belief in a guiding spirit.
A deistic excuse
Mentioning a deistic excuse, a reason attributed to a higher power.
Connecting the clues
Connecting the pieces of a puzzle, seeking meaning.
The ghost that follows us all the way home
Referring to a persistent ghost accompanying them home.
She follows us just like she always does
Emphasizing the consistent presence of the mentioned ghost.
You are the reason my spirit
Attributing a heightened spiritual state to the companion.
Is walking with more than it's shadow
Stating that the speaker's spirit is influenced by the companion.
You're not a bad friend
Acknowledging the positive nature of the friendship.
I want you till the end
Expressing a desire for the companionship to endure.
