"Ghost Story" adalah sebuah lagu yang dibawakan oleh Coldplay. Lirik lagu yang puitis melukiskan perasaan kesepian dan ketidakberdayaan, seakan sang narator merasa seperti hantu yang tidak terlihat dan tidak didengar oleh orang-orang di sekitarnya. Metafora hantu digunakan secara efektif untuk menyampaikan rasa pemisahan dan keterasingan yang mendalam, saat sang narator berjuang untuk membuat hubungan yang berarti dengan dunia.
Ghost Story Lyrics
Coldplay
Maybe I'm just a ghost
Disappear when anybody's close
Go through you when you travel
Travel over near
Maybe I'm just a ghost
Emptied by 'em, anybody knows
Maybe I'm on the ropes
Or I'm not even here
Yeaaah
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
Or maybe I'm a ghost
Specter on a wrong course
Thorn without out a rose
Something people fear
Yeaaah
And every time I thought I'll walk through walls
It's all becoming clear
What's the point in feeling love for you
When you don't believe I'm here?
What's the point of 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'll walk 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 disappe...!
Disappear when anybody's close
Go through you when you travel
Travel over near
Maybe I'm just a ghost
Emptied by 'em, anybody knows
Maybe I'm on the ropes
Or I'm not even here
Yeaaah
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
Or maybe I'm a ghost
Specter on a wrong course
Thorn without out a rose
Something people fear
Yeaaah
And every time I thought I'll walk through walls
It's all becoming clear
What's the point in feeling love for you
When you don't believe I'm here?
What's the point of 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'll walk 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 disappe...!
