Ghosts
SYML Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In my heart
I feel great, I feel lost
And I want you to know
I want you to know
It's my life, I am "pro"
I know things you shouldn't know
I'm willing to show
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about giving it up
This is me and I'm making it up
Is anybody real enough?
I see ghosts wherever I go
You know where they're hiding out
Is anybody real enough?
All these ghosts won't fight for their souls
I know we can break them out
Is anybody real enough?
I am not what you thought
I love hate, it gets me off
And I want you to know
And I want you to know
So come on love, let's get drunk
On our dreams, America
Am I drinking alone?
Drinking alone
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about giving it up
This is me and I'm making it up
Is anybody real enough?
I see ghosts wherever I go
You know
Where they're hiding out
Is anybody real enough?
All these ghosts won't fight for their souls
I know we can break them out
Is anybody real enough?
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about, I don't think about giving it up
I know
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about, I don't think about giving it up
I am one, I am all
You know me I never fall
I keep it down on the low
Keep it down on the low
So come on love, let's get punk
Let's get high and tear shit up
And keep it all on a phone
Keep it all on a phone
I see ghosts wherever I go
You know where they're hiding out
Is anybody real enough?
All these ghosts won't fight for their souls
I know we can break them out
Is anybody real enough?
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about, I don't think about giving it up
I know, I think about
I don't think about giving it up
Don't think about, I don't think about giving it up
The opening lines of SYML's song "Ghosts" depict a sense of confusion and contradiction within the singer. He feels both great and lost in his head and heart. He wants someone to understand him and see the real him, but he knows things that others shouldn't know, indicating some sort of hidden or secretive aspect to his character. Despite the uncertainty and complexity of his thoughts and emotions, he asserts his proactivity in shaping his own life.
The chorus of the song centers around the idea of "ghosts," which can be interpreted both literally and metaphorically. The singer sees ghosts everywhere he goes, suggesting a haunting or supernatural presence, while also metaphorically referring to unresolved traumas or memories that continue to affect him. He questions whether anyone is "real enough" to help him overcome these ghosts and break free from their hold.
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's inner psyche. He acknowledges that he is not what people might have thought he was and confesses to a fascination with the interplay between love and hate. He invites someone to join him in getting drunk on their dreams and tearing things up, but wonders if he is alone in this pursuit.
Overall, "Ghosts" is a powerful and introspective song that delves into the complexities of the human mind and the struggle to overcome past traumas or uncertainties. The lyrics express a yearning to connect with someone who truly understands and accepts the singer for who he is, while also acknowledging the difficulty of this feat.

En mi cabeza,
En mi corazón
Me siento grandioso, me siento perdido.
Y quiero que sepas,
Quiero que sepas,
Es mi vida, soy "pro"
Sé cosas que tú no deberías saber.
Pero estoy dispuesto a mostrar
Estoy dispuesto a mostrar
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses en darte por vencido
Este soy yo y estoy inventando
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
Veo fantasma a donde quiera que vaya.
Sabes dónde se esconden
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
Todos estos fantasmas no lucharán por sus almas.
Sé que podemos sacarlos
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
No soy lo que pensabas
Amo el odio, me alegra
Y quiero que sepas,
Y quiero que sepas,
Así que vamos amor, vamos a emborracharnos
En nuestros sueños, América
¿Estoy bebiendo solo?
Bebiendo solo
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses en darte por vencido
Este soy yo y estoy inventando
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
Veo fantasma a donde quiera que vaya.
Sabes
Donde se esconden
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
Todos estos fantasmas no lucharán por sus almas.
Sé que podemos sacarlos
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses, no pienso en abandonarlo
Lo sé
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses, no pienso en abandonarlo
Yo soy uno, soy todo
Me conoces, nunca caigo
Lo mantengo en lo bajo
Mantenlo abajo en el bajo
Así que vamos amor, pongámonos punk
Levantémonos y rasguemos la mierda
Y mantenlo todo en un teléfono
Mantenlo todo en un teléfono
Veo fantasma a donde quiera que vaya.
Sabes dónde se esconden
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
Todos estos fantasmas no lucharán por sus almas.
Sé que podemos sacarlos
¿Alguien real es suficiente?
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses, no pienso en abandonarlo
Lo sé, yo pienso
No pienso en darme por vencido
No pienses, no pienso en abandonarlo
