Ghosts in my Head

Hook

Midnight rides, city lights in my rearview

Bottle half gone but the pain still see-through

Talk to myself like the ghost in the seat do

Try to outrun what the hell I been through

Cold wind blowing through a cracked window

Memories hit like a fist in slow-mo

If healing exists I still don’t know

So I light one up and let the night roll

Verse 1

3AM and the road feels endless

Mind full of wars that nobody mentions

Smile on my face but the soul got tension

Every damn thought like a loaded weapon

Mama said pray but the sky stays quiet

Tried to be strong but the pain stays violent

Heart full of storms and I stay the pilot

Flying through hell just to keep on driving

Friends disappeared when the sun went low

Now it’s me and the bottle and the radio

Every damn song got a story I know

Every damn lyric like salt in a wound

Mirror don’t lie but I hate that dude

Ghost of the kid I was staring back too

Dreams turned dust like a match in June

Now all I got left is this midnight view

Hook

Midnight rides, city lights in my rearview

Bottle half gone but the pain still see-through

Talk to myself like the ghost in the seat do

Try to outrun what the hell I been through

Cold wind blowing through a cracked window

Memories hit like a fist in slow-mo

If healing exists I still don’t know

So I light one up and let the night roll

Verse 2

Truth is I’m tired but I keep pretending

Laugh with the crowd but the mask keeps bending

Everyone thinks that the scars keep ending

But some of these cuts never stop their bleeding

Life like a storm I can’t outrun

Every step forward feel like one undone

Dreams used to shine like a rising sun

Now they just flicker when the day is done

If hope’s a light then mine burned low

Lost in the dark where the lost ones go

But I still write cause it helps me cope

Turn broken nights into lines of hope

Maybe one day when the pain lets go

I’ll hear peace in the songs I wrote

Till that day I just drive these roads

With the ghosts in my head and the night turned cold

Verse 3

Headlights cut through the midnight rain

Every mile just circles the same pain

Tried to outrun every scar and stain

But the past rides shotgun in my lane

I remember nights when the world felt bright

When a dream meant more than surviving the night

Now the silence louder than any fight

And the darkness knows me better than light

Every bridge I burned still glows in the dark

Every lost friend left a permanent mark

Tried to rebuild from a shattered heart

But some broken pieces stay torn apart

So I write these lines like a last goodbye

To the younger me that still wonders why

If tomorrow comes and I’m still alive

Maybe hope and I both survive

Final Hook

Midnight rides, city lights in my rearview

Bottle half gone but the pain still see-through

Talk to myself like the ghost in the seat do

Try to outrun what the hell I been through

Cold wind blowing through a cracked window

Memories hit like a fist in slow-mo

If healing exists I still don’t know

So I light one up and let the night roll
