[Intro]
Hands on the dash
Mile signs blur
Heart on flash
I know for sure
[Verse 1]
Fast lane living
Yeah I spin that wheel
Every new city just a highlight reel
Too bright billboards
Too much noise
Still I’m scrolling through my childhood toys
Old front porch in my cracked phone glass
Mom’s old laugh like a ghost that laughs
Slammed doors
Big dreams
"I’m gone
You’ll see"
Now every runway just runs back to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Suitcase life
But the zippers ache
Every new win feels like a fake
I got gold on my name
But my chest feels hollow
Every step forward
Ten hearts I follow
[Chorus]
Home is where the echo hits
Where my name don’t need a fix
Beat drops hard but it still makes sense
When the walls know every dent
Every dent
I can run 'til the map turns cold
But the sound of your "hello"
Cuts right through the noise I chose
Home is where the echo hits
It hits
It hits (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Fast talk
Fast walk
Fast little pay
I say "I’m fine" in a hundred ways
Stage lights burn
Crowd shakes the ground
But your calm voice is my favorite sound
Burned out late in a neon bar
Clicked your street in a satellite star
Pinned that spot like a lifeboat dot
Every red-eye flight aimed at that one shot
[Pre-Chorus]
Thick-throat pride when I hit decline
"Call you back" but I blur the line
I stack trophies just to feel less borrowed
Still your kitchen light cuts through my sorrow
[Chorus]
Home is where the echo hits
[Bridge]
[beat drops
Drums cut
Claps only]
Hands up
Count it out now (hey!)
One for every time I left
Two for every I-owe-you
Three for every held-back breath
Four for every slammed-screen fight
Five for all the long
Long nights
Six for when you still said "stay"
When I had already walked away
[Build]
[low vocal register]
Floorboard creaks like a marching band
Old dog barking
Knows my hands
Key in the lock
Whole world goes still
Then your footsteps on the hall
I feel—
[crescendo]
[Chorus]
Home is where the echo hits
[Chorus]
