about

“Ghosts” is a sporadic song regarding song structure. There are repeated parts in the song, but quite a few are just small places touched on once and then are gone. Of all the songs on Weak Bones, “Ghosts” is the most diverse. There are slams, two step riffs, a 2-part vocal harmony, and an extended clean outro with a bass solo. While it’s not my favorite song to play live, I believe that it showcases the true extent of what our band is capable of as musicians.

lyrics

I am not the same
I used to be happy
What will I become?
If I lose my hold?

Caught in a web of my design
Home is the farthest it could be

Nails bite into my thighs
And I draw blood
Teeth clenched and eyes closed
Hide from the pain

Entombed by my thoughts
I am my enemy

No release is found
I am estranged
This stress is brand new
Please end this

Why is what I love
A personal hell?

I am not the same
I used to be happy
What will I become?
If I lose my hold?

What will I have?

Dead home
And an empty soul

How many years have I wasted
How many nights?
How many cold stares earned from you to live my life?
And now it's come to the point
Where you were right and I'm alone in this plight
I've never felt more isolated
It's a bitter taste
Developed anxiety I just can't place
Your ghost haunts me wherever I walk
I guess I was just never a bite and always all talk
