[Verse 1]
Foot heavy on the pedal
White lines blur
I don’t blink
Rearview full of ghosts and gravel
I don’t care what they think
Yesterday sits in the back seat
Breathing down my neck again
Every mile another bad dream
Every breath a held-in flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t turn around
Can’t stay the same
Hands on the wheel
Heart in the way
[Chorus]
I’m speeding from the pain of yesterday
Into the trouble of another day
Chasing down the wish of a simple end
Pain free
Worry free
Just to feel again
Foot heavy on the pedal
Let it shake my chest
If this is all I get
I’ll still give my best
[Verse 2]
Late night
Empty station
Coffee cup and shaking knees
Phone lit with accusations
I scroll past every plea
All the words I never answered
Buzz like hornets in my head
So I drown them in the motor
Roaring louder than regret
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t slow it down
Can’t kill the ache
Tires scream loud
Something’s gotta break
[Chorus]
I’m speeding from the pain of yesterday
Into the trouble of another day
Chasing down the wish of a simple end
Pain free
Worry free
Just to feel again
Foot heavy on the pedal
Let it shake my chest
If this is all I get
I’ll still give my best
[Bridge]
Headlights on an empty shoulder (woah)
I’m so tired of looking over
If the road just swallowed me whole
Would the weight fall off my soul?
[Chorus]
I’m speeding from the pain of yesterday
Into the trouble of another day
Chasing down the wish of a simple end
Pain free
Worry free
Just to feel again
Foot heavy on the pedal
Let it shake my chest
If this is all I get
I’ll still give my best
