Phantoms Lyrics by Beautiful Sgt.

memory.wav

2023

[Spoken]
The closer you come, I think, to another human being
The more completely mysterious and unreachable that person becomes
I mean, you know, you have to reach out
You have to go back and forth with them, and you have to relate
And yet you're relating to a ghost or something
I don't know, because
We're ghosts. We're phantoms. Who are we?
And that's the phase to confront--the fact that you're completely alone
And to accept that you're alone is to accept death
Well, to have a real relationship with a person that goes on for years
That's completely unpredictable
And you've cut off all your ties to the land
And you're sailing into the unknown--into uncharted seas
You know, people hold onto these images of "Father and Mother"
"Husband and wife" again, for the same reason
'Cause they seem to provide some firm ground
But there's no wife there
What does that mean?
A wife. A husband. A son
A baby holds your hands
And then suddenly
There's this huge man lifting you off the ground
And then he's gone
Where is that son?
