Ghost Lyrics

Lyric discussion by squashle 

Cover art for Ghost  lyrics by Gunship

Combined with the music video I think a clear picture emerges of specifically what the lyrics are about:

Two lovers on Earth when some kind of cataclysm/apocalypse/mass life-ending event occurs. The singer concludes there is only one way for them to survive, they must transfer their minds into a computer/AI/cybernetic system.

Do they die and an a replica of their minds lives on in a computer? Will they still be able to love eachother? Does consciousness transcend or bridge this event in some way? What will this experience feel like?

These are the questions the song/video explores.

My Interpretation

@squashle , You absoluckingfutely read my mind!!! I have been going over this song for quite a while now, absorbing all the emotions I feel listening to it my headphones in a dark room.

I have to say, after reaching my own thoughts, that you have completely spelled it out to perfection. Thank You.
