Ghost And Pals Reckless Battery Burns Lyrics

OYWM – Hey there, my friend! I hope you’re doing great. Today, I want to take you on a lyrical journey through one of my favorite songs, “Reckless Battery Burns” by Ghost And Pals. This indie rock band has been turning heads with their catchy melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.

Before we dive into the lyrics, let me give you a little backstory. I first discovered Ghost And Pals while on a trip to Austin, Texas. Their energetic live performance and infectious stage presence had me hooked from the moment they stepped on stage. I immediately bought their album and have been a fan ever since.

Lyrics

Sheer thrills and frivolities
Erratum discussions held under my control
Conveyed in tongue, said again and again
While waiting for the hour
The shadows standing still

They dance on the edge of life
They whisper a story told of prepossessing image
The world is spinning, the Sun so bright
It’s full of hatred and doting
Get out of my mouth

Invite suicidation
Transfer enumeration
Dyed and used it for an infestation
In the future, when you and I are
Eating and handcrafting theory
Fingers crawl across and playing
He’s grinning, making memories
Inattentive signs on a wall
Long lost for sure

Aren’t I hurting anyone?
Perhaps it’s time for me to tear apart
For what it is I’ve been
Denote my place within humanity
Projecting by my will
I’ve been amassing solid iron claws
Ignore the rottenness
My recitals will decay in a flash

My stomach turned at the thought of the stars
And my heart pounded louder than the ones I had before
Silencing cries when I get into bed
We can help it by letting the demons ravage it all
I know it’s late, but we have to get home
Endless staining and fading
These scars, indefinite
Wondering what it would be like to be locked
In a room with electrical lights that burn like a match

Remember the human heart
Began as a vessel hallowed out to be imparted
It can’t be hurt, but it can be killed
Begins to burn in a spiral of animosity

It’s nerve endings long ago
Gone scarlet and white as they predicted not returning
They stared intently at twilight’s face
Through the open door, through the flowers
As she unfurled her will

Invite suicidation
Transfer enumeration
Dyed and used it for an infestation
In the future, when you and I are
Eating and handcrafting theory
Fingers crawl across and playing
He’s grinning, making memories
All the more when we share a kiss
Further, for thy sake
Open my mouth and scream aloud with me
Arise and then break out
Denote my place within humanity
The image of a face is on a wall with solid iron claws
A happy face of me
It’s not a nightmare, just some nonsense

My heart races to the root of my neck
My lungs growing thicker at the hands of men
Let us focus on getting through the day
Without making him angry again

My hands grow numb when I think of what’s wrong
My mind full of anything that’s left of her
Let us focus on getting through the day
Without making him angry again

I’m too worthless to return
To playing such a harmful role again
Eventually, I’ll become
The pain that everyone’s abetted
If you ever die, what will your memory start looking like?
That’s the way it is, remember?
Stomach holes burning

In the heavy years, wide-open eyes pervaded in unease
But love still penetrates, it’s on our lips
It shows, because of you
Projecting by my will, I’ve been amassing solid iron claws
Ignore the rottenness, and see your beautiful, bewildered face
