It's cold out here at midnight Some truths the day won't tell Til the sunlight brings the kind of thing That always does me well The only child of a traveler I'm only killing time The path he kept has nothing left I'll ever know as mine And I heard the ghosts chased him down like dogs I've spent my time nameless Ageless and counting days Born to lose where the clouds won't move And the men avert their gaze Sometimes I start aching To give my feet a new place to fall And for the man, I understand Found some distance from it all And I heard the ghosts chased him down like dogs Like some mad God's creation, the epilogue The story has no ending The future's not yet told The past, a man, whose weathered hand I'll never have to hold So here's to moving on And here's to where I'll go And here's to fear and wandering, dear That I hope to never know And I heard the ghosts chased him down like dogs Like some mad God's creation, the epilogue And I heard the ghosts chased him down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs Down like dogs
