Lyrics meaning
The lyrics reflect on how quickly life passes and how relationships move between meeting and parting. The mood is wistful, but not entirely hopeless: bright moments appear alongside grief, and the repeated thought that people will become โghosts againโ gives the song a quiet sense of mortality. The emotional movement feels less like a story with a resolution than a return to the same tender, uneasy awareness.
โThousands of midnightsโ and โsleepless lullabiesโ suggest many lonely nights, where comfort and rest remain out of reach. โSilver liningsโ usually means hopeful aspects of a difficult situation; here, โSundays shiningโ and โweightless hoursโ offer lighter, fleeting moments. โA place to hide the tearsโ presents love or closeness as shelter, though the line that everyone says goodbye reminds us that this shelter cannot prevent loss.
โGhostsโ may mean the dead, but it could also suggest becoming distant memories or fading from one anotherโs lives. Likewise, โfaith is sleepingโ might imply that belief has grown quiet rather than disappeared. The lyrics hold these ideas open: they acknowledge endings, yet the whispered refrain sounds intimate and gentle, as if accepting impermanence can itself be a way to stay close.
