Spooky
S.P.O.C.K Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waking up, feeling strange
A look in the mirror confirms the change

All of my powers are out of control
Another host is carrying my soul

I am not myself today
I'm trapped in another body
I am here at the academy
To prepare a new shell for me

I'm not sure about that idea
The old one was really a part of me




I am not myself today
I'm trapped in another body

Line by Line Meaning

Waking up, feeling strange
Upon waking, I feel different than usual


A look in the mirror confirms the change
My physical appearance has altered as well


All of my powers are out of control
My abilities are unstable and unpredictable


Another host is carrying my soul
I have entered another body, controlling it from within


I am not myself today
I do not feel like my true self


I'm trapped in another body
I am physically inside a different vessel than before


I am here at the academy
I have come to this institution for a specific purpose


To prepare a new shell for me
To construct and acquire a new bodily form for me to inhabit


I'm not sure about that idea
I am uncertain about the idea of changing my body


The old one was really a part of me
My previous body felt like an integral part of who I was
