Ghosts
UNKLE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The thrust inside me
As the Devil rides within
But I stand quietly
My enemy beside me
Waiting for hell to begin
Waiting for hell to begin
The demons, they seduce me
The risk that drives me
As the angles avoid the sin
But I stand quietly
My enemy beside me
Waiting for something to win
Waiting for something to win
The dark consumes me
The [?] feeds me
As demons fight to get in
But I stand quietly
My enemy beside me
Waiting for hell to begin
Waiting for hell to begin
Waiting for hell
Waiting for hell to kick in
Waiting for hell
Waiting for hell to kick in
Waiting for hell
You can run
But the ghosts are gonna come
You can hide
But the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside
You can run
But the ghosts are gonna come
You can hide
But the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside
Inside...
You can run
But the ghosts are gonna come
You can hide
But the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside
You can run
But the ghosts are gonna come
You can hide
But the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside
You better run
The ghosts are gonna come
You better hide
They'll get you on the inside
You better run
The ghosts are gonna come
You better hide
They'll get you on the inside
You can run
But the ghosts are gonna come
You can hide
But the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside...
The lyrics to UNKLE's song "Ghosts" paint a vivid picture of a person standing amidst chaos and turmoil, waiting for the onset of hell. The opening lines, "The dust that blinds me, the thrust inside me, as the Devil rides within" suggest that the singer is being taken over by dark forces that are beyond their control. However, they stand quietly, with their enemy beside them, waiting for something to win or for hell to begin.
The second verse speaks to the temptation that the singer is facing. They feel seduced by demons and risk, and the angels are avoiding their sin. Yet, they remain standing quietly, with their enemy beside them, waiting for something to win. The third verse speaks to the struggle with darkness that the singer is going through. The dark consumes them, and they are being fed by something that is not revealed in the lyrics. The demons are fighting to get in, but the singer remains standing quietly, waiting for hell to begin.
The chorus, "You can run, but the ghosts are gonna come. You can hide, but the ghosts are gonna get you on the inside" sums up the overall theme of the song. The singer is facing a spiritual battle that they cannot avoid. The ghosts of their past, present, and future are haunting them, and they can't escape. They must confront their demons and find a way to overcome them.
Overall, "Ghosts" is a powerful song that explores the struggle between light and darkness, good and evil. It speaks to the demons that we all face in our lives and the need to confront them head-on.
