when this life gets you down
when the feeling starts to fade
get a hold of yourself
and find the will to start again
almost over everything, almost over
with the ghost on your tail
you've been on the run all day
a weathered face in the mirror
with a smile from yesterday
almost over everything, almost over
lick the blood off your lips
taste the metal in your mouth
then let the wind on your back
blow you clear out of this town
let the open road lead you,
show you the way through
and the black cloud will leave you
you'll be almost over everything, almost over
when the feeling starts to fade
get a hold of yourself
and find the will to start again
almost over everything, almost over
with the ghost on your tail
you've been on the run all day
a weathered face in the mirror
with a smile from yesterday
almost over everything, almost over
lick the blood off your lips
taste the metal in your mouth
then let the wind on your back
blow you clear out of this town
let the open road lead you,
show you the way through
and the black cloud will leave you
you'll be almost over everything, almost over
