Steel Train Turnpike Ghost lyrics

I wanna live like I did back then
With the stars in my eyes
And the blood from the heart of a pen

With my hood pulled up in the light of the night
I was smoke in the bed like a ghost
White light on the turnpike

You didn't lift my world off me
But you said, "Let it go", so I did, now I see
That my friends are gonna leave me
If they don't believe that they can save me

You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that

Like a bolt of lightning
Your stark life moves on
And you wake up frightened
What's going on, what's going on?

I'm waking up tired
No God has appeared
I never ever really found
Real faith in the fear

You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that

I'm so sorry for the things I said
But a lot of me died
When a part of her is dead

But I can dream it's a fear and it won't carry out

I will live an easy nightmare
Plant a seed in your garden of doubt

You didn't lift my world off me
But you said, "Let it go", so I did, now I see
That my friends are gonna leave me
If they don't believe that they can save me

You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that

Like a bolt of lightning
Your stark life moves on
And you wake up frightened
What's going on, what's going on?

I'm waking up tired
No God has appeared
And I never ever really found
Real faith in the fear

Let me wash it away
Let me wash it away
You'll never ever really find
Real faith in the fear

You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that
You don't have to live like that
