lyrics

Where'd they go?
The million or so
Ghostrunners

We pulled from the sky and
Sent round the diamond
In gold summer

Some made it home
Some made it home

Some got high
Flew right by
The branches and the years

Some grew strange
Far out of range
Devils in their ears

Some walk the night
Wound too tight
Tuned like a mandolin

And wait for a sun
That may never come
The love song of Ann Boleyn

Some kept their heads
Some kept their heads

I used to run
Beneath Ohio sun
Burn in the Florida heat

Body blessed
Effortless
Lightning at my feet

But the moonlight's rude
And it shines right through
When you're a ghost on the run

And its show your age
How you can't keep pace
Like you did when you were young

Chasing visions and dreams
Chasing visions and dreams

When I'm moving fast
I don't think about the past

One day you
Will slip on your shoes
And quietly slip out the door

Legs will twitch
You'll feel that old itch
But not the weight anymore

You'll run through the night
Your feet all light
And effortless

Legs will churn
Ain't no concern
Passing your old address

You'll make it home

I was the boy who had to be ghostrunner [REPEATS]
I was the boy born to be ghostrunner

Empty roads full of potholes
And ghostrunners
