Spirits Lyrics

I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't

I been looking at the stars tonight
And I think, oh, how I miss that bright sun
I'll be a dreamer 'til the day I die
But they say, oh, how the good die young
But we're all strange
And maybe we don't wanna change

I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
But the gun still rattles
The gun still rattles, oh
I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go

I spent a lot of nights on the run
And I think, oh, like I'm lost and can't be found
I'm just waiting for my day to come
And I think, oh, I don't wanna let you down
'Cause something inside has changed
And maybe we don't wanna stay the same

I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
But the gun still rattles
The gun still rattles, oh
But the gun still rattles
The gun still rattles, oh

Oh, and I don't want a never-ending life
I just wanna be alive while I'm here
And I don't want a never-ending life
I just wanna be alive while I'm here
And I don't want to see another night
Lost inside a lonely life while I'm here

I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
I got guns in my head and they won't go
Spirits in my head and they won't go
But the gun still rattles
The gun still rattles, oh
But the gun still rattles
The gun still rattles, oh

What is the Meaning of Spirits?

Well, strap in folks, because this tune is a rollercoaster of introspection! The Strumbellas are basically saying, "Hey, we've got some mental ghosts and they're not packing their bags anytime soon." The 'guns' and 'spirits' in their heads symbolize lingering thoughts and anxieties that refuse to leave. They acknowledge the strange beauty of life while also wrestling with its fleeting nature. There's a yearning for meaningful existence rather than an eternal one. But hey, they're not all doom and gloom - they also hint at hope and change. So really, it's like they're serving up a cocktail of existential angst with a twist of optimism. Bottoms up!
