Rayland Baxter - Ghost, Again Lyrics

Well I'm walking in spite of my days
Taming women that don't wanna be tamed
And I'm lying to all my very good friends
And telling them I'm all okay

I spend time in a prison of sores
Throwing punches that were often ignored
But here I stand as a ghostly white man
Laying alone on the floor

But don't you know I know it's not ok?
I've nearly made it to the end of the road
A long black road, will never be paved
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again
And I'm losing my mind, yeah I'm losing my mind
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again

Well my friend went away to the sea
She was a millionaire's bride to be
And she wrote me a letter that said don't forget her
But she never returned to me
Well yeah I guess I'm part of the cause
That helped one more bird fall in love
But here I stand as a ghostly white man
Wondering where I belong

But don't you know I know it's not ok?
I've nearly made it to the end of the road
A long black road, will never be paved
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again
And baby if I could you know I would
But all I've been doing ain't doing no good
And I'm losing my mind, yeah I'm losing my mind
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again

You got your gun to my head from the hill of high hopes
You got two bullets left, where do you want them to go?
I'm losing all of my family, I'm losing all of my friends
Yeah they all talk about me like I'm some kind of dead man

But don't you know I know it's not ok?
I've nearly made it to the end of the road
A long black road, will never be paved
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again
And I'm losing my mind, yeah I'm losing my mind
And I'm turning myself into a ghost again

omg, another rayland song that i didn't know i needed

It is nice to hear a song written with personal truth.

I just saw this song. Before i listened "Yellow Eyes" and i really liked it. Its like a treasure for me

Beautiful song, beautiful guitar solo!! Fantastic!

Why have I not heard this before. Im hooked. I'm turning myself into a ghost again...

maybe the saddest song I have ever heard... I love it

everybody on the earth needs to hear this song

This ist exactly how I would describe myself. Can't wait for the new album to arrive. I'm a lonesome wulf and a crazy bird just like Rayland Baxter...

I love everything on this... every little thing...

How is this dude not blowin up.

I just love this song... hate I missed you this time at Minglewood but will catch you live again soon!

Truly artistic craft..... wow this song is mind blowing

very few songs have saved my life. this is one of them. if you're reading this, Rayland, thank you, from the bottom of my heart

Saw him a few months ago and met and talked with him. Really nice guy, doesn't act like he's special, just normal. I told him if I was 25 he would be in trouble, and he signed my cd, to Linda, the love of my life ! Such talent, I can listen to him all the time.

You're lucky (:

I'm losing my mind with this fantastic song! Thanks

saw him open for the Lumineers in NC on the 15th, played better than Borns I thought. hooked ever since!

Thank you for this song...

Wow...just wow 😢

this is very well worded.

damn Jay I didn't know you could sing?..silent bob must be proud

I saw you last night at the Palace in Albany and you are amazing! Bad things is one of my new favorite songs

Amazingly beautiful, thank you

Love it! It would be awesome if you come down near the Miami area. I discovered you in Greenville, SC and got to see you play once. Would love to experience that again. and this song IS perfection =]

I''m in love again.

Ashkelon is an excellent EP!  One of the best releases of 2013.
