Ghost
Ocean Jet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Break through the dark
And get me out of prison
You know I still rely on you

You know I am stuck,
Alone I can not fix that
Please break through my dark
Oh I bog down so deep
I'm praying 'Set me free'!
I'm just a ghost in a mirror

Break through the dark
Remind me what I'm missing
You know I still listen to you

My numbing heart
Shatters into pieces
Please break through my dark

My words are too quiet to be heard
My hands are too weak to lift swords
My bones will not stand any more steps
My eyes are still trying to find any sense

Oh I bog down so deep




I'm praying 'Set me free'!
I'm just a ghost in a mirror
