Ghosts
Dominium Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come in!
Let's start the celebration
They're hiding inside me
When your eyes are blind
I'm the gale who can knock
At your door
Sometimes, I hear torment souls
Whistling around me
I've heard voices in various ancient languages
They're talking... and they're whispering
They want to shelter from someone or something
Dreadful power
I want to escape from from this hell on earth
Help me!
I'm afraid of my dreams
I feel that I'm loosing in this labyrinth of shadows
They knew that we would blossom like
Spring flowers... someday, somewhere
Soon
Before I die
Between life and death
I'll cast the shadow
And now I'm clenching my teeth in a vortex
I've dug my hideout
I closed all the doors
And swallowed all the keys
Find in your pocket
The lyrics of Dominium's song "Ghosts" are full of imagery and metaphor, making it quite open for interpretation. The opening lines of the song suggest that the singer's soul is open to wandering ghosts, and they are inviting them to join in some kind of a celebration. The ghosts are hiding inside the singer, and they seem to be tormented souls looking for shelter from someone or something. The singer hears voices in different ancient languages, talking and whispering, suggesting that the ghosts are from different times and places. The overall atmosphere of the song is quite eerie and somber.
The chorus, "I want to escape from this hell on earth," captures the mood of the song quite well. The singer is asking for help, afraid of their dreams, and feeling lost in a labyrinth of shadows. They are clenching their teeth in a vortex, suggesting that they are struggling to break free from something that is consuming them.
The last part of the song suggests that the singer has found some kind of refuge, closing all the doors and swallowing the keys. The final line, "Find in your pocket," is quite cryptic and open to interpretation, leaving the listener wondering what the singer is trying to convey.

Tobias' ability to write instrumental music is underrated and underused.

Nothing quite like the sound of the brass section of the orchestra playing some ominous tunes!
