Song of the week: Ghosts Again by Depeche Mode

 





This song came out just when I needed it. My life ledger had amassed a great deal of of names in the loss column and i was having a hard time getting by and the things I should  be feeling. I had shut down in the empathy department. I knew I should be hurt. I knew I should be riddled with all the emotions. Psych furs front man Richard Butler helped the iconic Depeche duo compose a song of loss born reunions and the comfort Inevitability and hugeness, the universe  and the f the circle of life. Dave and Martian had just loss their friend and band mate fletch and went into the Recording of this song and album with emotional baggage and a mission stamens to drop it off at the tracks.


This song is beautifully tragic and soothingly uplifting 

 



Wasted feelings

Broken meanings

Time is fleeting

See what it brings

Hellos, goodbyes, a thousand midnights

Lost in sleepless lullaby

Heaven's dreaming

Thoughtless thoughts, my friends

We know we'll be ghosts again

Sundays shining

Silver linings

Weightless hours

All my flowers

A place to hide the tears that you cried

Everybody says goodbye

Faith is sleeping

Lovers in the end

Whisper, "We'll be ghosts again"

Heaven's dreaming

Thoughtless thoughts, my friends

We know we'll be ghosts again

Faith is sleeping

Lovers in the end

Whisper, "We'll be ghosts again"
