Story behind the song
This is one of my favorite songs that we did. Like a lot of our earlier songs it came from Russ and I sitting in my basement just trying to think of a new song. We were both listening to the Billy Corgan solo record and liked the way it sounded. Russ began playing the bass parts and I just began noodling on the guitar. At first what I played was a little more involved and intricate, but the more we played the less and less I played until I am playing just a few notes throughout the song. If we would have kept going following our final record, "Transmission", I would have liked to try to go even more in a minamalistic direction with my guitar parts. I like how the bass takes the lead here. Because it is a fanstastic bass part. Also, I would like to say, that it is the drum beat that makes this song. Taylor really brought here. It's minimal but driving and you can dance to it. It's fantastic. I mean it when I say that we had the best drummer ever. These are also my favorite lyrics that Russ ever brought to the band. It gave us the title for the record "Ghosts", and I just think that they are fantastic.
Lyrics
Build a life robotic Static screen emits blue flame Outside is too chaotic Ceiling bleeds a brand new stain No one knows I'm here By morning they might Familiar voices yearning Radiator plays quietly to the night Strong scent of chemical burning CHORUS From a crack in the door I see movement Room begins to slowly to turn Ghosts live in empty houses I haunt an empty home Lights haven't worked in weeks Town outside burns in so bright Wrapped up in dirty sheets Shadowplay across this floor at night Crack in the window lets in the rain Inside these same four walls Color in the wallpaper begins to fade Light breaks down empty halls CHORUS BRIDGE Stare into hot white lights Faucet slowly leaks Inside this room a spark ignites Blood spills fresh on these broken streets
