Whiskey & Ghosts

Got a thermos full of whiskey, keeps me warm at night, And a ghost in the mirror, starin’ back in the light. Every mile I drive, I leave one more behind, But the faces in the glass still haunt my mind.

Whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me, One burns slow, one won’t set me free. Don’t ask for mercy, don’t ask what I see — It’s whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me.

Pulled off in a truck stop, neon buzzed like a sin, Thought I saw forgiveness, but it wouldn’t let me in. Now I toast to the silence, I toast to the pain, Me and my shadows keep drivin’ again.

Whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me, One burns slow, one won’t set me free. Don’t ask for mercy, don’t ask what I see — It’s whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me.

Some nights the bottle talks louder than the past… But the past don’t ever run out, it always lasts.

Whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me, One burns slow, one won’t set me free. Till the last mile swallows what’s left of me — It’s whiskey and ghosts, ridin’ with me.
