So young, so how were you to know

You're a carrier, a carrier, of the light inside of you?

Glows green in the pitch black night
Can't tell anyone, it's hurting you
So hold it in, cover up, pull up your sheets
A torpedo cruising in the ocean, and soon it's due

So I got to sit up, sit up
For my heart to come down

The ghoulish entities, they come floating through the walls
Ghostly enemies, they come floating through your door

And the ghoulish entities, they come floating through the walls
From the past, from the past
And they're somewhere right before you like the ghost of Christmas past

I was always floating around the city
Go with the flow without ever knowing where I wanna be
So I got into crazy situations
A loyal soldier who acts, but never asks:
"Why am I flying on my back?
With the moon looking down?
Where's my band? Where's anything at all?
And why's the ceiling going to black?"

The ghoulish entities, they come floating through the walls
Ghostly enemies, they come floating through your door
And the ghoulish entities, they come floating through the wall
From the past, from the past
And they're somewhere right before you like the ghost of Christmas past

Don't, that hurts, and anything's coming unless you go,
And you can't break the chasing ghosts
So much so, when they come back but never ask
At your side, at your soul
When they come back but never ask

The ghoulish entities, they come floating through the walls
Ghostly enemies, they come floating through your door
And the ghoulish entities, they come floating through the wall
From the past, from the past
And they're somewhere right before you like the ghost of Christmas past
Starts the theme of a nightmares
which runs throughout the song, pull
up your sheets being a metaphor for
hiding from something.
Continues the idea of a
nightmare, as the idea up
the being unable to sit up is
most likely a reference to
suffering from sleep
paralysis. It suggests
something constantly visits
him in his sleep
Reference to Scrooge and being
haunted for your sins, and the idea of
something floating through the walls
suggests that whatever the narrator is
experiencing is uncontrollable, as
walls cant keep it out.
This part suggests that there is no
way he can beat his demons, so
instead he has no choice but to
become one with them when
making the video this could be the
point where he changes as a
character.
Suggests that he has become a slave
to the ghosts as he never asks why
these things are happening, just in
the same way a soldier has no right to
question what he is told to do.
The phrase from the past is one of the
most repeated parts of the song, in
order to show that whatever is
haunting the narrator is something
which he believes he is finished with.
