I See Ghost
As Animals Lyrics

The song "I See Ghost" by As Animals is a haunting track that touches upon the themes of loss, grief, and hallucinations. The first verse talks about how the singer cannot see the person's face who they once loved, but only remember their name and their presence. The second line where they mention "suddenly your eyes disappear in the night" signifies the absence of the person in the singer's life. They then run as fast as they can, indicating they're not ready to confront their loss yet.

The chorus "I see ghost gunfighters" is a metaphorical representation of the past pain and memories that continue to haunt the singer, refusing to let them live in peace. The inability to move on from a loss, in this case, is depicted as paranormal activity of ghosts from the Old West - gunfighters. The second verse depicts the singer's state of mind, where they feel disconnected from their body and that they're falling deep, with nothing to catch them. The fever and hallucinations here represent the singer's struggle to come to terms with their loss.

The song evokes strong emotions and resonates with the listeners who have experienced bereavement. It's a melancholic but a poignant reminder to confront our losses and allow ourselves to grieve.
