Lyrics analysis

Tell me where am i supposed to go?
And who am I supposed to believe.
If only you knew what I knew.
Then you could see just what I see.

[Chorus]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.

You say I look fine, if only you knew what's on my mind.
You'd see a whole different sign, I couldn't show you even if I tried.
I must have got lost in time when I found out I was only free to be, where ever I want to be.

Some say I'm out of sight, how ironic that we're all so blind.
If you could open up your eyes, you could see what I couldn't describe.
And then, you'd see the signs, and then your soul would be set free, and then you'd be released.

[Chorus]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.

Tell me where am I supposed to go.
And who am I supposed to believe.
If only you knew what I knew.
Then you could see. (Hey)

[Chorus]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.

And I'm terrified, like I've seen a UFO.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.


Looking at the Lyrics to the song Ghost in a machine by B.O.B, I have interperated the lyrics with someone feeling trapped and alone in the life that they are liveing and that they just want to get away from it all and leave to a place that they can be free. The opening lyrics beging with 'Tell me where am I supposed to go? And who am I supposed to believe' This shows that the person really doesn't know what is going on with their lives anymore and they don't really know how to live it anymore things like the media and society could be effecting this therfore I will be useing elements of them in my music video. The end of the first verse finnises with the lyrics 'If only if you knew what I knew. Then you could see just what I see' This is saying that if only people where thinking like they are that they would be able to ubnderstand the feelings they are going through.

The chours of this track shows the urge to get urge to get away from things and not been able to deal with feeling like they are anymore, I have picked this up from the lyrics 'so I pack my bags and go, as far away as I can go'. The chorus also has the lyrics 'Because everything ain't what I used to know' this again shows that the persons feeling towards things have now changed and that they are feeling different to before. The chorus also portrays how the person has tried to ignore the way they are feeling for a while but can't do it any more, I have interperated this from the lyrics 'And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more' The chorus then finnishes with the lyrics 'There's nothing worse then feeling like a ghost' which I think means that they feel again as if knowbody understands them.

The second verse I think is showing again how if the person tried to explain to people what they where feeling they wouldn't understand and also that people over time have lost their freedom to know that they are able to do what they want when they want without the infulences of other things. I also think it shows that if people where to stop and actually think a bit more they would understand how they have lost their sense of freedom and then would be able to gain their own mind, indeopendence and freedom back.

The finnish verse I think shows how the person is scared of things and feels as if what they have now beging to realize is a scary thing but they are not able to hide behind their thoughst anymore and feel as though something has to be done about it as they don't want to feel alone and as if they have no freedom anymore.
