lyrics

Ghost lights,
Guide my way through the night,
Miles upon miles upon miles,
Drive until there's nothing in sight,
Drive until I lose my mi-

Hoplites on the walls,
Feeling nothing at all,
Brittle bones in the doorway,
Who's calling this time?
Shadows start to dance,
Forming words on the road,
"Why couldn't you help her?"
And "Where will you go?"

Howling at the moon,
Leaves me satisfied,
But I'm driving home too soon,
So I'll find some place to hide.
At the peak of twilight,
I'll meet Schiehallion,
Roam around in bracken,
Lose myself in twisting ferns 'cause,

She's got secrets,
And I've gone lame,
Just have to lay beside you,
'Till the world fills up with rain.
She's got secrets,
And I've gone lame,
Just have to lay beside you,
'Till the world fills up with rain.

Ghost lights,
Burning brighter than suns,
"Oh god what have I done?"
Fractured, mangled and scorched,
The corpse of a child and its toy.

Push that pedal down,
There's no-one here for miles around,
Just get away from there,
Whilst sirens wail and shadows sneer,
They'll never catch me.
I'd sooner rust.
I'll bring the munros down,
And build my home out of the dust 'cause,

She's got secrets,
I feel no shame,
Just have to lay in wait,
Until the bastards clear my name.
She's got secrets,
And I've gone lame,
Just have to lay beside you,
'Till the world fills up with rain.
