[Verse 1]
Sit back in the Cadillac
Watching life as it’s flying by
Streetlights blur like memories
That never learned to stay alive
Windows cracked, cold midnight air
Living in a life that isn’t mine
Every passing face looks happy
While I disappear behind my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep driving through the silence
Like I’m running from myself
No destination worth believing
No heaven left to help
[Chorus]
I’m nothing but a ghost
A shadow in this empty world
Fading through the cracks of time
Watching every dream unfurl
Nobody hears the quiet cry’s
Nobody sees the hurt in my eyes
I walk through rooms like smoke and sorrow
Too alive to die, too numb just passing by
[Verse 2]
Leather seats and old regrets
Carry scars I never show
There’s a war inside my head
That nobody will ever understand
Radio plays a sad old song
Like it understands my pain
And every mile just feels the same
Another road, another rain
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep searching in reflections
For someone I used to be
But the mirror only shows me
What the dark has made of me
[Chorus]
I’m nothing but a ghost
A shadow in this empty world
Fading through the cracks of time
Watching every dream unfurl
Nobody hears the quiet cry’s
Nobody sees the hurt in my eyes
I walk through rooms like smoke and sorrow
Too alive to die, too numb just passing by
[Bridge]
Maybe I was meant to vanish
Like headlights down an endless road
Maybe some hearts break so slowly
They forget how to feel whole
And I still keep driving nowhere
Just to say I tried to stay
But every sunrise feels like punishment
For making it another day
[Outro]
Sit back in the Cadillac
Watch life as its flying by
I’m nothing but a ghost
Still pretending I’m alive
