You’re still here, but you’re gone
You’ve moved on, but you still remain
Oh persisting, without leaving
What’s the difference anyway?
It was good enough for a while
Then it was just enough
And by the time the barrel was empty
You’d gotten used to being hungry
Now you’re a ghost, yeah all alone
Yeah, you’re a ghost, yeah all alone
And when you go it alone
Oh, you take the long road
You creep, into a corner
Shut in, in a shell
Just going through the motions, without moving
Always standing in the back
You’re so near, but so far
You’ve gotten good, at taking orders
Now you’re walking the middle of the road
In a world of your own
Now you’re a ghost, yeah all alone
Yeah, you’re a ghost, yeah all alone
And when you go it alone
Oh, you take the long road
Yeah, you take the long road
Oh, you take the long road
Yeah, you take the long road
