Lonely Road Home

The moon hides behind a veil of smoke
Echoes of old promises broke
Whiskey on my breath, dust on my boots
Chasing shadows, searching for roots
Ghost town at the edge of the plains
Haunted by forgotten names
Roaming through the ruins of dreams
Nothing is as it seems
On this lonely road home
Where the wild winds moan
Forsaken souls, we roam
Wandering but never alone
Barbed wire scars across the land
Faded signs that time left to stand
Heart's a prison of regret
Past misdeeds I can't forget
Stars burn out, one by one
Night consumes the dying sun
Chains of fate drag me down
Every mile, another ghost town
On this lonely road home
Where the wild winds moan
Forsaken souls, we roam
Wandering but never alone
Barbed wire scars across the land
Faded signs that time left to stand
Heart's a prison of regret
Past misdeeds I can't forget
Stars burn out, one by one
Night consumes the dying sun
Chains of fate drag me down
Every mile, another ghost town
On this lonely road home
Where the wild winds moan
Forsaken souls, we roam
Wandering but never alone
