Prompt / Lyrics
(VERSE 1) The porch light’s on, but it don’t feel like home Shadows in the hallway where the silence has grown Center Road is quiet, a skeleton of rust Every echo in my head says I’m the one they can’t trust Mama’s kitchen smells are laced with worry in the air Son's sayin "dad, I love you, I can't lose you- you are my only friend here Pills on the counter, appointments I keep missin, Clock keeps tickin louder, but I’ve stopped listenin (CHORUS) I gotta leave this hometown, let the highway blur my name Trade the panic in my chest for a brand-new kind of pain Roots run deep, but the dark grows deeper every night I’m chasin down tomorrow before it swallows up the light It hurts like hell to say goodbye to the only world I know But stayin means I’m drownin slow— So I gotta go (VERSE 2) Street sign is flickerin, half the letters gone cold, Same tree where I carved my name and the nights I can’t hold Jenny’s married now, says “You look like you’re far away” I smile through the static that’s been screamin in my brain The stations shuttered, the badge, and hope both out of reach Therapist keeps talkin, but the words don’t stick to me Sleepless, restless nights, a mind that’s runnin low on fumes Rearview mirror’s haunted—time to outrun these rooms (CHORUS) I gotta leave this hometown, let the highway blur my name Trade the panic in my chest for a brand-new kind of pain Roots run deep, but the dark grows deeper every night I’m chasin down tomorrow before it swallows up the light It hurts like hell to say goodbye to the only world I know But stayin means I’m drownin slow— So I gotta go (BRIDGE) Sirens echoing in my skull at 3 a.m., focused breathin Wellness checks that feel like chains, good intentions leavin One day I’ll circle back, once the static starts to fade Sorry I left, it was the hardest choice I've made Love ain’t always stayin, it's the choice to walk away SAVE. MYSELF. STOP THE BLEEDOUT! TODAY! (OUTRO) Lights fading on the water tower tonight A Hometown Hero who's lost the fight Yeah, just a kid with a half-lit dream, and a mind that’s learnin flight Runnin toward the morning, one shaky breath at a time REARVIEW MIRROR HOMETOWN! (Repeat 3 times) Just a lost kid, a half-lit dream, with a mind giving up the fight Yeah, Stuck in flight
