There's an invitation for growth and improvement within the sweet caress of these sounds that are sure to make us smile and realize that a fake sense of perfection is unnecessary to have.

"I wrote this song at a time when these things directly related to the people, circumstances, and situations I was experiencing; and what it meant after that time had come to pass. Why do we download ghosts? Sometimes we avoid the responsibility of moving on by distracting ourselves with things that only make it harder to move on. That easy external dopamine hit is easier than looking inwards. ‘Download A Ghost’ is for anyone who has made the same mistakes as me. For all of those who have been where this song is at, it is for you too. We all have had to step into the responsibility of not needing someone to fix our problems. At one point or another."
