(Verse 1)
Ridin' fast down this dusty trail, heart poundin' like a runaway train,
Saw Mary’s shadow dancin’ in the neon rain, a mirage drivin' me insane.
Her smile’s a flame that burns too bright, but she’s just smoke in the pale moonlight,
Chasin’ a ghost that don’t breathe or cry, but damn if I don’t wanna try.
(Pre-Chorus)
My mind’s a storm, wild and loud,
Lost in the thunder, lost in the crowd.
She’s not real, but she owns my night,
Mary’s a spark in this endless fight.
(Chorus)
Mary, Mary, you’re a wild fire in my veins,
A phantom kiss that drives me insane.
I’m mad as hell, caught in your game,
Loving a ghost, but you’re callin’ my name.
Hey! Mary, don’t you vanish away,
I’m burnin’ up in this ghost town haze.
Hey! Mary, you’re my pain and my flame,
A love that’s fake but I’m playin’ the game.
(Verse 2)
Talkin’ to shadows when the bar lights dim, swear I’m losin’ grip on my own skin,
Her laugh’s a knife, cuts deep and thin, a twisted dance I can’t win.
Rage boils hot like a midnight fire, mad at a ghost who fuels my desire,
Pain’s a drum I can’t ignore, lovin’ a ghost that’s folklore.
(Pre-Chorus)
My heart’s a riot, out of control,
Caught in the grip of this phantom soul.
She’s nowhere but everywhere I go,
Mary’s the storm I can’t overthrow.
(Chorus)
Mary, Mary, you’re a wild fire in my veins,
A phantom kiss that drives me insane.
I’m mad as hell, caught in your game,
Loving a ghost, but you’re callin’ my name.
Hey! Mary, don’t you vanish away,
I’m burnin’ up in this ghost town haze.
Hey! Mary, you’re my pain and my flame,
A love that’s fake but I’m playin’ the game.
(Bridge - Instrumental Break with energetic guitar riffs and a pounding drumbeat)
(Bridge Vocal)
Screamin’ at the night, can’t shake this spell,
Dancin’ with shadows in my own hell.
Madness and heartache, tangled tight,
Mary’s ghost haunts every fight.
(Chorus - Call and Response)
Lead: Mary, Mary, why you runnin’ free?
Response: Ghost in the whiskey, wild as the sea.
Lead: Mad and broken, tell me what I’m missin’?
Response: Lovin’ a dream that don’t exist, son.
(Outro)
So here I stand, fire in my soul,
Chasin’ a ghost that’ll never be whole.
Mary’s a name etched in pain and flame,
A love that’s fake but I’m playin’ the game.
