[Intro]
Fast mind
Fast car
Skrrt past
Black heart (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Fast mind, fast car, white lines blur
Got a death wish sitting right in my nerves
Got a cracked screen glow on a midnight face
And a pill in my tongue just to keep my pace
Said you worried 'bout me, but I love that fear
Put the pedal to the floor till the sound disappears
219 on the dash, that's a prayer I shake
Every red light feels like a chain I break
[Chorus]
Got that need for speed, I don't feel a thing
Break your car, put you on your knees, hear the metal sing
Devil behind the wheel, whispering to me
Saying, “Drive till you die, that’s the way you’ll be free”
Got that need for speed, I don't ever sleep
Veins full of gas, and my faith running on E
Devil behind the wheel, hand over my eyes
If I crash right now, at least I went alive (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Eyes dry, can't cry, just a jitter in my jaw
All the texts you sending, I don't ever hit “saw”
Got the rearview tilted so I can't see past
‘Cause I burned that bridge, now it’s only gas
Airbag thoughts, imma blow one day
Every lane that I swerve is another mistake
But I feel so safe when the grip might slip
Like I only touch earth when I almost flip
[Chorus]
Got that need for speed, I don't feel a thing
Break your car, put you on your knees, hear the metal sing
Devil behind the wheel, whispering to me
Saying, “Drive till you die, that’s the way you’ll be free”
Got that need for speed, I don't ever sleep
Veins full of gas, and my faith running on E
Devil behind the wheel, hand over my eyes
If I crash right now, at least I went alive (went alive)
[Bridge]
Tell my mom I was already gone
Long before the tires kissed that dawn
Tell my ex that the silence I keep
Was louder than the sirens in the street (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Got that need for speed, I don't feel a thing
Break your car, put you on your knees, hear the metal sing
Devil behind the wheel, whispering to me
Saying, “Drive till you die, that’s the way you’ll be free”
Got that need for speed, I don't ever sleep
Veins full of gas, and my faith running on E
Devil behind the wheel, hand over my eyes
If I crash right now, at least I went alive (at least I went alive)
