Lost Highway

Verse I

I drive the lost highway;

My headlights casting shadows on the hollow road.

Flickers in the mirror;

I’m haunted by the spectre of a promise I broke.

 

Pre-Chorus I

Oh it’s making me shiver,

I never should’ve listened to the whispers of snakes.

I’m a cold-hearted-killer,

Running from the memories I cannot escape.

 

Chorus

Time was slipping through my hands;

All the grains of falling sand.

Time was slipping through my hands

When I killed you.

 

Verse II

I drive the lost highway;

My headlights casting shadows on the hollow road.

I sing in the choir on Sunday mornings

to remind me that my God is my hope.

 

Pre-Chorus II

Oh I walk on a tightrope

Between the girl I am and who I think I should be.

After everything I’ve done,

Does heaven have a room or is there no vacancy?

 

 

 

Chorus

Time was slipping through my hands;

All the grains of falling sand.

Time was slipping through my hands

When I killed you.

 

Pre-Chorus I

After everything I’ve done,

Does heaven have a room or is there no vacancy?

 

Chorus

Time was slipping through my hands;

All the grains of falling sand.

Time was slipping through my hands

When I killed you.
