Girl and the Ghost Lyrics

this is my personal interpretation, not sure how accurate it is...

i think the song is about the body and soul of a girl (probably herself).

"haven't seen each other in three years" - we loose sight of who we are (soul)

"commonly connected by something bigger, set off of the eternal trigger" - metaphysical philosophy

"meet in the corridor, touch fingers and walk right though, feels so famililar and fearless" - finally find who we are and what we're looking for

"the light that usually goes around" - our body's way of being the representation of our soul's energy
