Verse 1
Graveyard shift on a dead-end road
Chrome and shadows, carrying the load
Headlights flicker through gasoline rain
Every mile just feeds the pain
Pre-Chorus
Ash on the dash, smoke in my lungs
Every night I come undone
Chorus
It’s flatbeds & nicotine
Steel and scars inside of me
Hauling ghosts I’ll never save
On highways paved with graves
Through the fire, through the screams
I drown it out with gasoline
I live somewhere in between
Flatbeds & nicotine
Verse 2
Wrecked-out souls in twisted frames
Siren hymns calling my name
Cold black sky, no stars to see
Just red and blue bleeding on me
Pre-Chorus
Burnt-out eyes, rusted dreams
Chasing air I’ll never breathe
Chorus
It’s flatbeds & nicotine
Steel and scars inside of me
Hauling ghosts I’ll never save
On highways paved with graves
Through the fire, through the screams
I drown it out with gasoline
I live somewhere in between
Flatbeds & nicotine
Breakdown (chanted)
DRAG THE DEAD
BURN THE PAIN
SMOKE AND STEEL
IN MY VEINS
Bridge (scream → clean)
I was born in the wreckage
Raised by the night
I keep pulling the broken
Just to feel alive
Final Chorus (bigger)
It’s flatbeds & nicotine
This is where I bleed
Through the fire, through the screams
I live somewhere in between
Hauling ghosts, carrying blame
Still breathing through the pain
This is my in-between
FLATBEDS & NICOTINE
Outro (growled)
Steel… smoke… survive.
