It's cloudy in the west, it looks like rain
My eyes are black holes and I'm burning away

You slaughtered your loving man, killed him in his sleep
The blood and crying of your murder simply stains the sheets

Now, you're a ghost on the highway
Your gesture is meaningless
You're lost to the living men
Trailing souls to the end

You thought winning as a woman, meant failing as a friend
It is not an art statement to drown a few passionate men

You made yourself a diamond to blind young men's eyes
You claim because they want your shine they deserve to walk the line

You're a ghost on the highway
Your gesture is meaningless
You're lost forever to the living men
Trailing souls till the end

Yes, I would give you my love so my soul would not starve
But it could never move the honest rock of what you are

You're a ghost on the highway
You're like straw and meaningless
I hate you, but I love you
I'll carry that to the end

If I ever lie with you again, I pray I do not sleep
If I ever close my eyes again, I'd realize what you are to me
You are simply a liar
An animal who bluffs and steals
Until you become a bigger creature's meal

You're a ghost on the highway
You're trash and meaningless
I hate you, but I love you
I'll carry that to the end

You're lost on the highway
