Ghosts | Lyrics
She said
This is not about a poltergeist
Not about a phantom that glows at night
But there are things we don’t know and I
Don’t have another choice but an open mind / oh
And I know what they’ll say
I’m trying to make sense of what no one can explain
But I’ve been having dreams that after I’m awake
Play out in reality the very next day
So I play along
I nod my head when they say I’m wrong
But each night falls and away I run
On the other side till the daylight comes
And when the lights go down
I see things I can’t explain
Calling out my name
The lights go down
Holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
Ghosts
This is not about you and me
I can’t bring back how it used to be
And I know what I do believe but
I’ve already seen what I couldn’t see / oh
So I play along
I nod my head when they say I’m wrong
But each night falls and away I run
On the other side till the daylight comes
And when the lights go down
I see things I can’t explain
Calling out my name
The lights go down
Holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
Ghosts
And when the lights go down
Is there something in the air
There but never there
The lights go down
Holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
Ghosts

“I made a sock puppet video because it took me months to feel like I deserved to have fun. So I celebrated it, and I have no regrets. I wanted to make you guys smile. You deserve to smile. You deserve to have fun. You deserve to live.” -Mike Shinoda 6.8.18 The light heartedness of the video takes away the edge of the grief and pain in the lyrics. Linkin Park fans will be forever grateful for Mike Shinoda sharing his grief and journey out of the darkness ❤️ We are so proud of you Mike.

[@kimraudenbush427]

I couldn't decide whether to smile or cry: the video itself is entertaining (it's Mike Shinoda, duh), but the lyrics are an expression of pain for who (Chester) and what (a best friend, a talented bandmember, and all-around kind compassionate person) has been lost, and an expression of heartbreak for the memories that haunt us when someone tragically passes on... And Mike Shinoda: we all miss Chester... You, Brad, Joe, Phoenix, & Rob have our love and support.

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

This song is not at all about Chester... Mike has said multiple times, he just challenged himself to write a song about ghosts that doesn't say he believes in them but also doesn't say he doesn't believe in them. The song is not meant to be serious or sad, and has nothing to do with Chester's passing. But, I guess he was right... "even when it's not about you, all of a sudden it's about you"

[@eloise13]

I'm a new fan - I'm 49 and I'm ashamed to say that I'd got so stuck in my own ways and 'my' music that I refused to listen to anything else. I started listening to a young artist called Jake Munro and became a part of the community he built up, which is a very strong and supportive community and has a great many Linkin Park fans. Many of these fans I am - to be fair - old enough to be the mother of, and they talked about LP and suggested that I gave them a try. So I did. And MAN! Were they RIGHT! I haven't loved a band this much in 30 years! I really didn't think that because of my age, I would integrate into the LP community on the various social media platforms, but they welcomed me with open arms, suggested tracks to watch out for, told me about the history of the band, how it came about, and about each member and explained what each member brought to the group technically. They could have told me to google it, but they didn't - they talked to me and brought Mike (and Anna, of course). I listened to LP's lyrics and they described so many of my own feelings. I started watching Mike's Twitch streams about a month ago and am enjoying them so much and I realised what an incredibly talented man he is. I watch him mix these tracks and how he does it, I have no idea. I don't understand what he's doing - really I don't because I work in the NHS and understand medical things and drugs but have the musical abilities of a rhinoceros. But here's the thing. I have been in three abusive relationships and as a result of the abuse and damage done, not only can I not have children - which tears me apart - but have severe depression. I take a cocktail of pills every day and have seen counsellors, psychiatrists, etc, etc, to 'help'. I've been busily buying LP's back catalogue - yes, I can download it, but I love having the physical CDs in my (very large) collection - and I bought Post Traumatic. That album has helped me more in nine months than many years of counselling ever has done. I can't say why. I really don't know. But the lyrics that Mike has written have touched me in a way that I can't explain, and the progression of the album just....helps. So thank you Mike - and your beautiful Lady, Anna - and the LP community for everything you've all done. You've all helped me so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. And I do love the socks... xxx

[@juncohs1495]

I love your beautiful words. Take care! Wish you all the best!

[@CyclonicTuna023]

Mike. I just want to say you are such a big inspiration to me. When Chester passed away I felt like the ground started crumbling from underneath me. I still find it hard te cope with that loss. I can only imagine what you must've felt like. But somehow, someway you manage to turn it around and keep creative, and keep making music. And that is just, fucking powerfull man. I think I speak for all the fans when I say that your music has helped us cope. You have been a bright beacon of light this past year, for everyone around you, and everyone around the world who was hurting with you. And I just wanted to say how fucking gratefull I am for that. Everyone would've had sympathy with you and the other guys, should you have retreated for a year, or two years or even longer, without reaching out. I mean you lost your bandmate, your vocalist, your best fucking friend. But no, you opened yourself up to us. And you took us in, and helped us process the grief. And that is not just proof that you are a great musician, but also a great man. You didn't leave us in the dark. So we will never leave you in the dark, or the other guys for that matter. Thank you.

[@Hana0nana0]

this mv still makes me smile, happy bday mike :))

[@Firzen39]

Hey Mike, in case you're reading this comment there is a little thing I wanna say. I've been avoiding your videos till now, simply because I was avoiding an old ghost. The ghost of Chester and Linkin Park, not to mention the fact that I will never be able to go to Linkin Park concert. I guess, in the end, it realy doesn't matter. I saw this video, clicked it without even thinking and saw it completely with a smile on my face. Maybe one day I will get the chance to see your concert instead. I'm looking forward to what is comming. I wish you the best of luck and thank you for the music.

[@territells5555]

I know this message wasn't meant for a fellow fan but I wanted to say I felt much the same way. After his death, when Mike started to bring out these songs, I had a hard time bringing myself to listen to them I wasn't ready to deal with it. Mike is a brave man.

Mike, here I am from Italy.... well I live abroad now but I am from Italy: and I just signed in KZbin, now, to reply to you. Guilty of what!!!!! No one could ever be guilty for simple funny time. You Deserve Fun, we (the fans) expect you to go on with your ART. This song is your style and lyrycs are so deep as always. I had a kind of those ghosts. The whys, those calls without an answer, made them heavy companions at firts. Then I turned my ghosts as if they were one of my best friends living far from me, on the other side of my world: talking and laughing and asking support to them sometimes :-)...And I had support, a hand on my shoulder. I stopped feeling abandoned. Memories are not heavy anymore and there's no more dark in me, although missing the good times shared when there was no distance, yet. So, c'mon, let's go on with these smart and amazing socks ;-) To those who turns their nose up (if there are any) reply with some good words lake these: Now I'm not looking for (your) absolution Forgiveness for the things I do But before you come to any conclusions Try walking in my shoes You'll stumble in my footsteps Keep the same appointments I kept Bye Mike!

[@benfelli24]

One of the best songs right now. I love the flow and that you can unterstand every single word he sings and the lyrics are just amazing

[@DialogoLuisOtero]

The song is amazing! Boris is so tender, It's the cutest video I've seen.❤️

[@FirstNameLastName-is8ie]

Linkin Park GpLatinoamerica Boris is strange but an addition to the family nonetheless. 🙂

[@josefe-gamer9132]

Linkin Park GpLatinoamerica I thought the same! So cute, Mike :')

[@NoName-oo5ge]

[@user-sb3xo6jk4d]

Mike, thank you for being in this world. Thanks for the Linkin Park group. I always listen to you when I'm sad and feel better

[@Squashylemon]

The song makes me feel so sad but, then the sock puppets make me laugh. It feels like he's trying to make us feel connected to humanity in terms of the sad moments like you can't ignore them, you can't just take yourself out of those moments and forget them but, don't worry there are good moments too that will make you smile so, don't give up.

[@therosko]

At the end of the video I realised that I am sitting like a little kid, watching a puppet show, giggling all the time... :D

[@kimberlyandexler3402]

Wow! Didn't think it could get better than Running from My Shadow, yet here we are ❤❤❤

[@AnimatedSquirrel]

Listening to this on this Halloween night, when the realms of the living and the dead meet, for Chester and Mike. Rest in Peace Chester. Your friends and family miss you and love you, and will never forget you! "Tonight is for our ghosts"!

[@sufiyankhan2815]

somehow every LP song is like they are telling & Sharing my Story and Telling what i feel. its Amazing. I am Glad i found em. Way to go Shinoda!

[@DavidHutchinson0713]

Yay, new music! Thanks Mike, you're awesome!

[@AhmadFareez]

1. By far, the best song from PT. 2. Who said you need millions to make cool music video? All you need is a talking sock.

[@refthegeneric]

Takumi Fujiwara and cute gohst effects

[@adelaabascal8548]

Agree❤️

[@peter8776543]

My favorite song off the album

[@lavi5172]

Such a great song! And when the lights go down Is there something in the air? There but never there Such great lines

[@firebomb80]

I miss Chester so much, he touched Mike in such Way that he is just writing gold lyrics, every song is full of masterpiece in harmony.

[@mariadrum6793]

Jamez agreed

[@mariadrum6793]

And i think. Chester. Touched all our LP family hearts

[@EddyJoe]

Mike is at a point of no f's given where he just says, screw it, I'm making a video with sock puppets and it's damned good. Such a creative release. I'm impressed by this childish approach.

[@vanessachiunda7262]

You've given me hope again Mike. You n Chester helped me get through dark times. 😞 I literally shed a tear after seeing you're singing again. May God bless you with a long life. And keep spreading positivity and life through your music. We're here. We've always been listening 😢thank you. ❤️

[@camillylynch2585]

I'm so proud of Michael. I love you, dear, so much that I can't even explain how do I feel. 🤧💖

[@stayVLR]

I already know Boris and the sock gang have really socked it out of the park...sorry but it's great

[@AverageSteve]

I need to get new socks because mine clearly don’t sing like this.

[@PsychicMario64]

Average Steve Really? Mine do this daily. They're just normal Gildan brand socks.

[@Melissa.Garrett]

You just won the internet with this comment!

[@Basedwealth]

😂😂😂

[@Loyannelima]

Average Steve 😄😄😄😄

[@evilfairy85]

Average Steve i was dri king soda and i almost choke on it when i read ur coment because i wanted to laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@wraithgirl2156]

My neighbors just got to hear this song...me singing..got my headphones on so I'm not sure how it sounded..I do hear dogs barking...but no cops so far...and I'm about to do it again..I love my life..thank you Mike❤

[@sacredangel7090]

Amazing! Love you man. Thanks so much for everything you do.

[@PrincessRiners]

why am i so attached to these singing sock puppets LOL.

[@asphyxiate14]

PrincessRiners yeah, they'd be ok if the one puppet didn't have 2 6's for eyes and one for a nose. Sick of satanic symbolism in every fucking music video. It's sad really i loved mike

[@oghippie4978]

Asphyxiate14 Seriously? Stop hatin' on my homie, Boris. He can't help that he has numbers for facial features.

[@oddbucket]

Asphyxiate14 I honestly can’t tell if this is sarcastic or not,

[@linkinparkgreece2761]

Asphyxiate14 oh , fu*k it's just the way he draws , not illuminati 😒👎👎

[@expansionpackdeluxe636]

+Asphyxiate14 Mike made fun of these comments saying that Boris has 666 on his face on twitter. Link: twitter.com/mikeshinoda/status/1005661803433480192?s=21

[@samuelflorescarrasco8538]

This song has a vibe that makes me wanna sing along all day. Your editions are unique, you deserve more fame than you got already, you're absolutely great Mike

[@daphnemunroe9550]
