I’ve Been Riding With the Ghost
[Verse 1]
While you was gone you must have done a lot of favors
You've got a whole lot of things I don't think
That you could ever have paid for
While you've been busy crying
About my past mistakes
I've been busy trying to make a change
And now I made a change

[Verse 2]
I've been riding with the ghost
I've been doing whatever he told me
I've been looking door to door
To see if there was someone who'd hold me
Never met a single one who didn't see through me
None of them would love me if they thought they might lose me
Unless I made a change

[Verse 3]
See I ain't getting better
I am only getting behind
Standing on the crossroad
Trying to make up my mind
Trying to remember how it got so late
Why every night pain comes from a different place
Now something's got to change
[Verse 4]
I put my foot to the floor
To make up for the miles I've been losing
I'm running out of things
I didn't even know I was using
And while you've been busy
Learning how to complain
I've been busy learning
How to make the change
Now I made the change
