歌詞

Twenty-two with a cigarette and a dream

Living life like a scene from a movie screen

We were king and queen of the 4th of July

Underneath that dusty Oklahoma sky

Now I’m staring at the skyline from a rooftop bar

Wondering how the hell we ever got this far

Got a new name and a place in the hills

Trading old scars for some newer thrills

But I still see your ghost in the passenger seat

Every time I’m driving down a one-way street

The radio’s playing that song we used to know

Reminding me of things I’ve had to let go

It’s a long way down from the pedestal

Everything we were feels so skeletal

One last look in the mirror tonight

Before I disappear into the neon light!

Oh, I’m leaving the ghosts in the rearview now

Shatter the crown and I’ll take a bow

Walking away from the person I was

Just because, yeah, just because

Ghosts in the rearview

You can’t stay the same when the world is on fire

You can’t keep the soul if you sell the desire

I’m sorry for the boy that I used to be

But he’s not the one who’s standing next to me

Oh, I’m leaving the ghosts in the rearview now

Shatter the crown and I’ll take a bow

Walking away from the person I was

Just because, yeah, just because

Ghosts in the rearview
