Ghosts
Presets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sailed across to faraway lands
And far away towns of tin an terror
Ran amok in a strip called love
Lost my mind in the streets of neon
Now I’m coming on back
Help me up move right, left foot forward
Oh we had a merry old time, but merry old times don’t count for nothing
Memories blur and they make me shudder
Bed in the morning, eight, four, five, couple of days to get my head off
Now I’m coming on back
Help me up move right left foot forward
To Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho
(Oooo ooo oooooo oooo)
I’m troubled by gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Far below the shiniest stars, shiniest stars won’t shine for ever
Take your soul and you can go far,
If you don’t fall from grace of favor
Golder weights are those who star
You can take now and I’ll take never
Now I’m coming on back
Help me up move right left foot forward
To Gho Gho Gho Gho Ghooo Gho Gho
(Oooo ooo oooooo oooo)
I’m troubled by gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Gho Gho Gho Gho Ghooo Gho Gho
I’m troubled by gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Gho Ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Soon I’ll be a very old man, and very old men they dream of summers
Spent with falls in faraway clans
While hometown crowds sing hymns of courage
Ran amok in a strip called love
Lost my mind in the streets of neon
Now I’m coming on back home
Help me up move right left foot forward
The lyrics of Presets' song Ghosts describe the journey of a man who traveled to faraway lands as a young man, indulging in drugs, women, and wine. The memories of his escapades are hazy and haunting, and he feels troubled by the ghosts of his past. The song is split into three different stages of life, the first being the singer's wild youth, followed by middle age, and finally, old age.
The first verse of the song details the singer's reckless youth, where he traveled to faraway lands and towns which were full of danger and excitement. He indulged in all sorts of vices, including drugs, and lost himself in the neon-lit streets. Despite the merry times that he had, he soon realizes that they hold no significance or value.
The next verse details the singer's middle age, where he is more reflective and contemplative about his life choices. He understands that the shiny things in life fade away eventually, and the only thing that matters is the journey one takes. He realizes that it's the people who don't fall from grace and remain humble that are worthier and richer than the ones who shine and burn out quickly.
The final verse shows the singer as an old man, who reminisces about his youth and his middle age. By this point, he understands that the fall from grace is inevitable, and he wants to move forward by taking one step at a time.
Overall, the song's lyrics depict the journey of a man who has lived a wild, adventurous, and reckless life, but eventually realizes that happiness can only be attained through simple things in life.

The flashy and stimulating city life caused me to lose my sense of self.
Now I’m coming on back
Help me up move right, left foot forward

I'm haunted by my past actions and the ghosts of my mistakes that exist in the afterlife.
Far below the shiniest stars, shiniest stars won’t shine for ever
Even the most brilliant things eventually fade away.
Take your soul and you can go far,
If you don’t fall from grace of favor
You can achieve great things if you keep your moral integrity intact.
Golder weights are those who star
You can take now and I’ll take never
People who act selflessly and with good intentions are the ones who truly prosper in the end.
Soon I’ll be a very old man, and very old men they dream of summers
As I age, I'll look back fondly on the highlights of my youth.
Spent with falls in faraway clans
While hometown crowds sing hymns of courage
I'll reminisce about my adventures elsewhere while those around me praise my achievements.
Now I’m coming on back home
Help me up move right left foot forward
I'm returning to my roots and need help getting back on track.

snickle1980
it's a recent song from ten years ago...there hasn't even been time for another generation to be born yet. 😁
But you know what? It's a great song, so go ahead and feel nostalgic. I'll join ya.
I just found the song last week, and it's on constant repeat as i get ready for work. 😁
Feels very martial or military in nature, ya know? Great for motivation.
Anyway...carry on, soldier. o7
