I think that by "ghosts" he means all the people and problems in his life, both the good and the bad. Now, he is reminiscing about these people, and how his problem with alcohol secluded him from these things. By "I wondered why I'm glowing," I think he means theat he lost himself in the process (being a "ghost" himself). Some of the lyrics may prove contrary, so this is just a thought. Overall, though, no matter what the lyrics mean, this is still a killer song!
Awesome song. He's revisiting a place, whether physical or mental, where he once was. That place is defined by his memories of it, made vivid again by being there. These memories are his ghosts. While he tries to drink the memories away, they stay just as clear while he gets more and more inebriated. The glowing part is definitely wide open to interpretation, but maybe that's the effects of drink on him. He's oddly happy despite the harder memories.

I'll take a stab at this one-
