[Intro]
Dark roads, memories unfold
Shadows of the past, stories untold
Driving through Kansas, 2018's haze
Life's fragile dance in a smoky maze
[Verse 1]
I was just a step away from the daily grind
The road ahead blurred, but I was just fine
Then suddenly, a flash of white, spirits in the sky
Loved ones waving as I passed by
A man with his hands behind, shaking his head
Guiding me through what the nightmares said
[Pre-Chorus]
An innocent turtle, crossing silent and slow
The universe's miracle, or a story I don't know
A spin, a crack, the world's torn apart
Barely clinging with a broken heart
[Chorus]
In the wreckage of the night, I heard a call
A whisper in the chaos, trying to take it all
Hold on, hold tight, through the pain and fear
A love so strong, it draws me near
[Verse 2]
The truck's warm hold, like a mother's embrace
A lullaby in the wild, a saving grace
We rolled and flipped, under the dashboard's light
Fighting shadows in the dead of night
My seatbelt broken, I broke free
Found my child, whispered, "You must see"
[Pre-Chorus]
Half an hour passed, the world grew still
Eyes on the truck, an unspoken fill
A ghostly figure, old and worn
Reaching out, my heart is torn
[Chorus]
In the wreckage of the night, I heard a call
A whisper in the chaos, trying to take it all
Hold on, hold tight, through the pain and fear
A love so strong, it draws me near
[Bridge]
Time folds, memories collide
Lost in the echoes, nowhere to hide
The past and present entwine
In this moment, I am divine
[Outro]
Driving through Kansas’s ghostly air
Carrying stories, burdens, love and care
Through the darkness, I will steer
Knowing love is always near
