Phantom Road

The constant nagging is pounding on my brain,
filling up my thoughts and driving me insane
Visions so clear, but no choice of left or right
Just like a thief, they vanish in the night

Phantom road, I can hear the siren’s cry
Phantom road, seems so real but it’s just a lie

Desire so great and a lack of self-control
Sealing my fate, I’m buried in a hole
Playing out what ifs and preying on my mind
Fleeting images are all that I can find

Phantom road, I can hear the siren’s cry
Phantom road, seems so real but it’s just a lie

There’s only blackness is my periphery
Look away from was and on to what will be
Ignore the sirens call that’s ringing in my ear
Shift my gaze so new options will appear

Phantom road, I can hear the siren’s cry
Phantom road, seems so real but it’s just a lie
