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 your 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 to 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 really 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 closed 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   Your trash and meaningless   I hate you, but I love you   I'll carry that to the end      You're lost on the highway
