My most favourite track on this album, because I can really relate to this...especially the line "And I'm terrified, like I've seen a UFO", because of UFO Disclosure etc. and my own personal experiences. From my own personal interpretation, I think this song is about living in modern city where there's various "truths", "lies", conspiracy theories, all sorts of misleading information the average person is constantly being bombarded with because of access to internet, multimedia, technology, books, people etc...and struggling with the meaning/truth of one's existence and the truth of human existence itself. I think this song is saying that when you're "feeling like a ghost", you know the truth of the situation and can see through all the lies and deceptions of others, relationships, society, history, religion, movements and all sorts of ideologies and systems, but your thoughts/feelings of what you know is truly happening isn't being voiced/heard or reaching out to others who can't see beyond the reality of what they perceive to be the truth or have been lead to believe is fact itself....figuratively speaking, you fade into the background and run from the truth like a ghost who thinks they're still alive and confused as to why others can't see him....the real him, whom he's hiding to protect himself from the dangers that come from knowing the things he knows. the line "How ironic that we're all so blind." expressed his frustration that others cannot question nor see beyond the manufactured truth they created or others such as the media, political figures, governments and society itself has brainwashed them into accepting, without question...or simply the things he knows is the truth.

@DreamersDisease Yep. Red pilled too - The Matrix was a documentary
