Ghost Story Lyrics
Disappear when anybody's close
Go through you when you try to hold
Try to hold me near
Emptier than anybody knows
Maybe I'm on the ropes
Or I'm not even here
More walls appear
What's the point of feeling love for you
When you don't believe I'm here?
What's the point of trying to raise your voice
If no one ever hears?
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear
Just a whisper in a puff of smoke
A secret that nobody knows
No one will ever hear
Specter on a roller coast(er)
Thorn without a rose
Something people fear
It's all becoming clear
What's the point of feeling love for you
When you don't believe I'm here?
What's the point saying "Rescue me!"
If no one ever hears?
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear
It's all becoming clear
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear
You disappear

this song to me is most definitely about unrequited love. The singer is singing to someone who he really loves, but she does not feel the same way. It could almost be thought that she doesn't even know he exists.

Maybe I'm just a ghost Disappear when anybody's close Go through you when you try to hold Try to hold me near
Maybe I'm just a ghost Emptier than anybody knows Maybe I'm on the ropes Or I'm not even here
Yeah!
Every time I try to walk through walls More walls appear What's the point of feeling love for you When you don't believe I'm here? What's the point of trying to raise your voice If no one ever hears? Every time I try to pull you close You disappear
Maybe I'm a ghost Just a whisper in a puff of smoke A secret that nobody knows No one will ever hear
Oh, maybe I'm a ghost Specter on a roller coast(er) Thorn without a rose Something people fear
Yeah!
And every time I thought I'd walked through walls It's all becoming clear What's the point of feeling love for you When you don't believe I'm here? What's the point saying "Rescue me!" If no one ever hears? Every time I try to pull you close You disappear Every time I try to pull you close You disappear
And every time I thought I'd walked through walls It's all becoming clear Every time I try to pull you close You disappear
Every time I try to pull you close You disappear
