"Ghost of Me" was born from a brief spasm of pain Marco experienced
when a young woman let him go upon arriving to the United States from
a trip to Guatemala in the early Spring. Things weren't the same when
she came back. She had grown as a person. Her travels had seasoned and
enlightened her, rendering her no longer compatible with him. When she
returned, he crowded her, asked her for time that she could not lend.
They argued, she accused him of clinging. Poor sod. The melody and
chord progression arose from the shallow depression that followed,
fueled by vodka and want of calories from neglected meals. But he has
since healed and is no longer concerned with the transparent dealings
of someone who has since proven to be a disingenuous, tactless flake.
Several other adjectives could be used to describe the young woman,
but who would want to denigrate our English language by applying it to
entities so unworthy of its syllables? Marco is outright embarrassed
that he once aspired to spend more time with her, let alone wasted
intellect on such a lamentation over losing her. But no matter what he
says, Univore encourages you to enjoy the musical elements of this
track.
