lyrics
hey have i seen you before?
i can't remember
you put on a face
full of displeasure
hey have i seen you before?
Oh mister ghost man!
you're an open door
all these choices left in the dust
dancing so sweetly in November rust while
I brew a boring life
and you withdraw from the strife
aim higher for me, mediocre life
as your brain rejects what's real
in this escapism is what keeps letting you feel
well do you think it's good?
you think it's right?
the border blurs away
and tears away the image
Hey let's escape this life
let's leave behind the lies
and somehow
the sweat in our hands
they're mixing together
crazy isn't it?
the yellow birds are flying
as you excuse your attempts for just "trying"
and as we revel in disgust from all the mainstream
you can always come along with me
you'll get carried away
you'll get carried away
it's a hesitant love
it's ghostly, deadly love
as your brain rejects what's real
in this escapism is what keeps letting you feel
you're covered
in fake images that danced
will this illusion
start to rot and break away, like skin?
"I love you"s and "I hate you"s
has all become so meaningless without each other
vanished sins from long ago
forbids me to enjoy the pleasure of "loving" you
"Hey, don't you want to run away from here?"
Say as I look you in the eyes, panic reappears
They say the spectres whispers to your ear
so let's get out of here
Hey let's escape this life
let's leave behind the lies
and now that
the sweat in our hands
they're mixing together
crazy isn't it?
from left to right, we're running
as you excuse your actions for just "trying"
and as we revel in disgust from humanity
you can always laugh along with me
you'll get carried away
you'll get carried away
it's absurdity, love!
drink your tears and then run
as you perish in the sun
whoa, it's Tamari! this song hits so hard. maybe a little too hard... jk, it's fantastic. the video(s of good songs in general, but especially Ghost's videos, and even more so Reckless Battery Burns) is giving me goosebumps. shoutout to Vane Lily too! you make really awesome songs together! ·-·· ·· ·· ··-·/··· - ·- ·-· ··· - --- ·-· --/-·- ··· -·-·
the songs on this album have been with me for many years; absolute bangers that i wouldn't wanna miss! too sad colorbars / broadcast illusion couldn't make it though :( ·-·· ·· ·· ··-·/··· - ·- ·-· ··· - --- ·-· --/-·- ··· -·-·
