Interstate Ghost

[Intro]
[Verse]
Packed the silk dress in a box
Left the house keys on the rocks
Mom thinks I’m at the retreat
I’m three states deep in the heat
The suburbs felt like a cage
So I just ripped out the page
My plan was a heavy stone
Now I’m finally alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Static on the radio dial
Haven’t seen a face for a mile
The sub-bass hits in my chest
Giving the 'perfect' a rest
[Chorus]
I’m an interstate ghost now
Don’t ask me why or how
Just me and the warped synth lines
Passing sun-bleached highway signs
My eyeliner’s smudged and gray
I like me better this way
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, let the engine hum
Ooh, look what I’ve become
No one knows my name
It’s never gonna be the same
[Verse]
Dinner is a bag of blue chips
Salt is crusting on my lips
Sleeping in the back of the Ford
Never felt less like I’m bored
Rest stop at three in the AM
Deleting every text from them
They want the girl in the pearls
She’s lost in the highway swirls
[Pre-Chorus]
Surf guitar cuts through the air
Wind is tangling up my hair
I don’t have a place to be
That’s the euphoria in me
[Chorus]
I’m an interstate ghost now
Don’t ask me why or how
Just me and the warped synth lines
Passing sun-bleached highway signs
My eyeliner’s smudged and gray
I like me better this way
[Bridge]
No one knows my name here
The air is finally clear
I’m messy and I’m loud
Lost inside a neon cloud
I’m a glitch in their design
And I’m doing fucking fine
[Verse]
Rearview mirror looks so strange
I’m liking the radical change
The 'perfect' path was a lie
Watch the old version of me die
Gasoline and cheap perfume
There’s so much more elbow room
I’m drifting until I’m found
In the silence of the ground
[Chorus]
I’m an interstate ghost now
Don’t ask me why or how
Just me and the warped synth lines
Passing sun-bleached highway signs
My eyeliner’s smudged and gray
I like me better this way
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, let the engine hum
Ooh, look what I’ve become
No one knows my name
It’s never gonna be the same
[Outro]
