Ghost Bikes Lyrics

I'm leaving home the day after tomorrow in the night

Cause it might just be about that time when moving on feels right

So I'll hop up on the magic carpet and mosey down the line

To distract me from this life I'm in feeling less and less like mine

My dream's to make an honest living, doing something that I love

Is that too much to ask?

I see the end that's in this river, looking like a dam

Can I take off this mask?

Went to see about a girl, what feels like years ago

I thought the words she spoke to me were something I could know

But she couldn't hear my words unless she saw them pass my lips

And now I think we're destined to just be two passing ships

My dream's to make an honest living doing something that I love

Is that too much to ask?

I see the end that's in this river, looking like a dam

Can I take off this mask?

They put his headstone on a highway sign

Don't know how I felt, I'm just glad it wasn't mine

If I find myself at the end of this conveyor belt

All I know, is I'll have this song to show me how I felt

Remember what you said down by those railroad tracks?

Seems I've gone and come and need you to remind me of the facts

Cause of course I lost my way when there was one path left to take

I just need someone to tell me I've got time for heaven's sake

My dream's to make an honest living doing something that I love

Is that too much to ask?

I see the end that's in this river, looking like a dam

Can I take off this mask?
