A Ghost I Became

Willy Vlautin

The years blurred until I barely
Recognized my own face
Years I spent trying the same way
And living in the same place

I started having dreams of the desert
So real they haunted me
Always sunny and never grey
No noise, just wind and sage

I began taking vacation days
And driving out as far as I could
The people around me said I drew away
That a ghost I became

Down in Utah in the middle of the day
I knew I could never go back
At a New Mexico gas station a kid was talking to me
I could hear what he said
No words came from me
Until he finally just walked away

I'm heading farther, heading farther now
I'm heading farther out and away
I'm heading farther, heading farther now
Heading farther out and away
I'm heading farther, heading farther now
I'm heading farther out and away
