[Verse 1]
Full tank
Empty head
Burning up the highway
Wish that it was me instead
Visor down
Hide my face
Rearview full of every
Single thing I can’t erase
I keep swerving on the same regrets
Every exit just another threat
Tell myself I’m fine, I’m fine
But I ain’t felt that feeling yet
[Chorus]
Redline to the edge, try to lose these demons
Engine screaming loud over all my reasons
Tell myself they’d be better if I’m gone this evening
Got my heart on E, but I can’t stop breathing
Too fast in the dark, and my thoughts keep speeding
Tires on the paint where my hope is bleeding
I can’t ask for help, so I talk to the ceiling
Redline to the edge, try to outrun feeling
[Verse 2]
Group chat lit
But my phone face down
They say, “Where you at?”
I just circle ‘round town
I’m the punchline
At my own expense
Laugh it off in public
At home it’s all offense
Mama think I’m doing great these days
If she knew the truth, it would break her faith
So I sink deeper in the helmet space
Let the wind wipe tears off my face
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
I been riding with a ghost on the back seat (back seat)
Telling me I’m only worth what I can’t be (can’t be)
If I crash out now, they’ll all live free
That’s a lie, that’s a lie
But it lives in me
[whispered vocals]
Headlights, white lines, heartbeat skipping
Every mile, one more I’m risking
[Chorus]
