Face Value
The Ghost Inside Lyrics

This will not be the new revival or a claim to fame.
This song is not an attempt to create a new movement or gain fame.

Far away from the slings and arrows is where you go to pass your blame.
People often avoid taking responsibility for their actions by deflecting their faults onto others.

It's the ones with no courage that can't face the day.
People lacking bravery frequently struggle to confront their challenges.

A captain with no ship is just a castaway.
A leader without followers is irrelevant and alone.

I sent my heart out to sea. I sent out my everything.
The artist exposed their most profound emotions in pursuit of something greater.

A crown atop your head does not make you a king.
Posessions do not define a person's worth or status.

A crowd that follows does not mean you can lead.
People can join a movement without understanding the greater purpose or what they stand for.

Take this for what it is. We all know who's to blame.
One should accept the reality of a situation and take responsibility for their actions.

You're not going to find your place. You're just a face with no name.
The artist believes some individuals lead directionless lives and have little impact on the world.

The weak prey on the weak, and I'll be the first to say.
Vulnerable individuals can be easy targets for those seeking to exploit them.

That I don't have all of the answers. Sometimes I run away.
The singer admits to their shortcomings and how some situations are too much to handle.

But I set out on this course, continue with no remorse.
The artist is dedicated to their chosen path and feels no guilt for their actions.

I know who I am, and it's enough for me.
The singer is confident in their identity and does not need external validation.

I sent my heart straight out sea. Will it make its way back to me?
The singer is unsure if their efforts were worth it and if they will receive anything in return.

I've been so lost because all I've found is hatred and corruption.
The singer has struggled to find positivity and goodness in the world due to an excess of negativity.

Can my heart weather this storm? And through the cold stay warm? I said!
The artist questions if they can withstand difficult circumstances while still holding onto hope and love.

If it makes its way back to me. I can survive anything.
If their heart (representing their deepest emotions or aspirations) returns, the artist believes in their ability to endure any hardship.
