The windshield’s lit with headlights burning up my brain

An overdose of nicotine coursing through my veins

There’s crosses on the shoulder phantoms up ahead

Waltzing to the rhythm of cupping on the tread

The highway she bewitches me and takes me from my home

And all the blood left in my body and the warmth still in my toes

Im just a ghost

Lord keep me from the wreckage of fire and gasoline

Them road dogs only go one way and this highways looking mean

To go go dancing tween the ditches on these interstates alone

The highway she bewitches me and takes me from my home

And all the blood left in my body and the warmth still in my toes

Im long gone from somebody anybody used to know

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a ghost

Im just a
