Fighting A Ghost

(álbum: American Wilderness - 2016)

What do you say
When your heart's not in it?
What do you do
When there's no new beginning?
How do you start
When you've forgotten how to finish?
Or how to be free again?
Or what the word even meant?

Give me something to keep me running
Don't let that fire burn out
Whoa oh oh oh
Seven years down and I'm still fighting
Still swinging at smoke
Still fighting a ghost

Why do we chase after these old horizons?
And what's gonna change
When you finally find 'em?
Wandering lost in an American Wilderness
Of checkout magazines
IMAX movie screens
Chain restaurants
And goddamn coffee shops

Give me something to keep me running
Don't let that fire burn out
Whoa oh oh oh
Seven years down and I'm still fighting
Still swinging at smoke
Still fighting a ghost

I've learned to love the pain
To love the fight
But am I just killing time?
Am I only killing time?

Give me something to keep me running
I'm still too young to burn out
Whoa oh oh oh
Seven years down and I'm still fighting
Still swinging at smoke
Still chasing that ghost
Still swinging at smoke
Still fighting a ghost

Now I'm not saying that my heart's not in it
But I could use a new, could use a new beginning
