Ghost Town Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My lungs are always short of breath,
you see these tracks you know the rest.
My face is scuffed my eyes are black...
Where's the point where I turn back.
And I can't help but think that this isn't me...
But maybe they're right... Maybe this is all a lie...
and I can't find myself 'cause
You've taken control
of my heart and my soul
Tried to call but your phones disconnected
Girl you know that I can not accept this
Now I'm stuck in my head
While you lie in your bed
Tryin' to sleep just to forget my name
Tryin' to sleep just to block out the pain
Born to believe what the world gave to me was everything that I'd ever be...
As we're lifted up high. These thoughts have arrived
to bring back some sense to our dwindling minds...
And so it goes the years fly by..
The more regrets the less I try. I just might die.
And I can't help but think that this isn't me...
But maybe they're right... Maybe this is all a lie...
You've taken control
of my heart and my soul
Tried to call but your phones disconnected
Girl you know that I can not accept this
Now I'm stuck in my head
While you lie in your bed
Tryin' to sleep just to forget my name
Tryin' to sleep just to block out the pain
Don't wanna feel this pain anymore...
I'm not in this universe my body's stuck in reverse.
My lungs are always short of breath,
you see these tracks you know the rest.
My face is scuffed my eyes are black...
Where's the point where I turn back.
You've taken control
of my heart and my soul
Tried to call but your phones disconnected
Girl you know that I can not accept this
Now I'm stuck in my head
While you lie in your bed
Tryin' to sleep just to forget my name
Tryin' to sleep just to block out the pain
The lyrics of Ghost Town's song "Universe" touch upon themes of feeling lost and disconnected from oneself, potentially due to the control and influence of outside forces. The opening lines illustrate a feeling of being out of place, with the singer feeling like they are not truly a part of the universe they find themselves in. They are physically stuck in reverse, indicating a difficulty in moving forward, while their physical appearance reflects their internal struggle. The mention of tracks hints at the idea of being on a predetermined path that the singer struggles to break free from.
The chorus highlights the idea of someone else having control over their heart and soul, and the attempt to contact this person being met with disconnection, showing a lack of communication and a sense of isolation. The singer struggles to accept this control, leading to feelings of being stuck in their own head and unable to escape the pain caused by this person. The lyrics seem to question the singer's sense of self and whether they are truly being themselves or conforming to expectations placed on them by society or the person who holds such control over them.
Overall, "Universe" is a song about feeling lost and disconnected, struggling to find oneself and break free from outside control. The lyrics highlight the difficult journey of self-discovery and the pain that comes with it, while also questioning the nature of identity and the impact of outside influences on our sense of self.
