Ghost Mouth
Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And nobody to see
Nowhere to go
And nobody to be
I'm on a ghost train
In a ghost cloud
And I don't know how to get out
I had a beautiful girl
A musical dream (?)
She wanted it all
But she didn't want me
Now I'm a ghost man
In a ghost town
And I just wish I could get out
And get it to heaven
I like the bad boys
And their (?)
I like the bad bands
And their big sounds
I've got a ghost mouth
With a ghost frown
And I'm too scared to get out
And get it to heaven
I got to quit staying home
Gotta get outta here
It just hasn't been home
Since you haven't been here
I knew it when I heard it the first time
I knew it when I heard it the last time
Nothing compares to you
That's right
I've got nothing to do
And nobody to see
Nowhere to go
And nobody to be
I'm on a ghost train
In a ghost cloud
And I don't know how to get out
And get it to heaven
Yeah I just wish I could get out
And get it to heaven
But I'm too scared to get out
And get it to heaven
The song โGhost Mouthโ by Girls explores the sense of loneliness that comes with losing someone you love. The lyrics express the feeling of being lost and having nothing to do, no one to see and nowhere to go after experiencing such a loss. The singer characterizes himself as a โghost manโ living in a โghost town,โ feeling like a shadow of his former self. The only thing he wishes for is to be able to get out and make it to heaven โ a metaphor for finding peace and happiness.
The singer reminisces about a beautiful girl who had aspirations to become a musician, and despite her talent and dreams, she ultimately did not want to be with him. This loss has left the singer feeling hollow and unable to move on. He admits to being attracted to โbad boysโ and โbad bandsโ with โbig soundsโ, which could suggest a self-destructive impulse.
The song ends with the singer acknowledging that they need to stop staying home and get out into the world. The repeated phrase โI just wish I could get out and get it to heavenโ reveals the singer's yearning for salvation from their current state of mind.
