Blue Ghosts On Fire
Burning the Past: Weatherheads' Blue Ghosts On Fire Unveiled
Lyrics
I found old letters that she wrote
I discovered old letters written by her.
On aqua stationary
The letters were on aqua-colored stationary.
I grabbed those monsters by the throat
I confronted the emotional weight of those letters.
Set them on fire
I metaphorically set the emotional burden on fire.
They can't haunt me if I look the other way
By avoiding them, I can prevent their emotional impact.
Burned, live and learn
Through the experience, I gained wisdom.
Now they're gone forever
The emotional burden is now permanently gone.
It's not another average day
Today is not an ordinary day.
Look I'm getting chills all over
I feel intense emotions, possibly discomfort or fear.
Her clever lines have less to say
Her once insightful words now lack depth.
When they're on fire
I symbolically set her words on fire as well.
They can't haunt me if I look the other way
Avoiding her words helps me evade their emotional impact.
Burned, live and learn
Learning from past experiences, growing wiser.
Watch the flames go higher
The flames of knowledge and experience rise.
Lies, they were lies
Her words were false and misleading.
Now they're ghosts on fire
Her deceitful words are now haunting memories.
Blue ghosts on fire
The haunting memories are depicted as blue ghosts on fire.
Blue ghosts on fire
Repetition for emphasis - the persistent impact of the memories.
The more I read the more I choke
As I read more, the emotional weight becomes overwhelming.
That girl was quite prolific
She was highly expressive and skillful in her writing.
All my dreams turned into smoke
My dreams and aspirations, like the letters, turn to smoke.
Returned to sender
I reject and return those dreams, letting them go.
They can't haunt me if I look the other way
Repetition for emphasis - avoiding the emotional weight of the past.
