Chapters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd have words to say to you if you would listen,
I'm beating myself,
In front of nobody else,
But nothing's happening,
I can't feel my skin
We're suffering,
I'm beating myself,
In front of nobody else,
I'd have bones to pick with you if I had some,
I'd have rivers that I could swim if I could get in them,
Don't beat yourself down, because there's no one around,
And nothing's happening, because I can't feel my skin
We're so frightening,
We're suffering,
Don't beat yourself down, because there's no one around,
We're so frightening,
We're suffering.
I'd have whole nights to walk through,
I'd watch night turn to day
Think of all the things I'd do
Think of all the things I could say,
We're so frightening,
We're suffering.
The song "Ghosts" by Chapters appears to be a reflection on one's own feelings of loneliness and isolation. The opening lines, "I'd have bones to pick with you if I had some, I'd have words to say to you if you would listen," suggest a desire for communication and perhaps some unresolved issues that the singer may have with someone. However, there is a sense of resignation that the other person may not be listening or available to hear their perspective.
The chorus, "We're so frightening, we're suffering," seems to speak to the universal experience of feeling alone and struggling to cope with the weight of one's own thoughts and emotions. The singer appears to be struggling with a sense of disconnect from themselves and their environment, with the lines "I'm beating myself, in front of nobody else, but nothing's happening, I can't feel my skin." This may suggest a sense of disconnect or dissociation from their own body and emotions, further emphasizing the sense of isolation in the song.
Ultimately, the song seems to speak to a sense of unfulfilled potential, with lines like "I'd have rivers that I could swim if I could get in them" and "I'd watch night turn to day, think of all the things I'd do, think of all the things I could say." Despite this, there is a sense of resignation and acceptance of the current situation, with the repeating refrain of "Don't beat yourself down, because there's no one around."

Same, I've seen this so many times but it's just so out of left field it always kills me. Especially the sound as he pushes it out of his mouth.

How they easily blend creepy with humor and then also a tinge of sex appeal makes it really easy for me to love this band.
