[Verse 1]
Lonely highway, lonely racer
Dash readin 250, heart chasin danger
White lines blur, but my head stay clear
Or it should be
I’m swervin lanes like I’m swervin years
Same old fear in a new routine
Gas light glow on my last good dream
Rearview full of every ghost I leave
[Chorus]
Lonely highway, lonely racer (yeah)
Still driftin lanes, still swervin pain
Floor to the steel, but I stay in place
World flyin by, I’m stuck in my brain
Lonely highway, lonely racer
Tell me what I’m chasin
If I crash into the night
Would it finally break the silence I’m facin
[Verse 2]
Half tank, but I’m runnin on fumes (on fumes)
Thoughts blacked out, paint peel in the moon
Exit signs look a lot like hope
Till I pass one more, tell myself “cope”
Empty seat where you should sit
Talk to the wind, pretend you exist
Playlist stuck on that song you hate
Still I let it spin, let it irritate
[Chorus]
Lonely highway, lonely racer (hey)
Still driftin lanes, still swervin pain
Floor to the steel, but I stay in place
World flyin by, I’m stuck in my brain
Lonely highway, lonely racer
Tell me what I’m chasin
If I crash into the night
Would it finally break the silence I’m facin
[Bridge]
Headlights cut through the ache
Every mile feel like the last mistake
If the guardrail talk, what would it say
“Turn around, kid, or fade away”
[Chorus]
Lonely highway, lonely racer
Still driftin lanes, still swervin pain
Floor to the steel, but I stay in place
World flyin by, I’m stuck in my brain
Lonely highway, lonely racer
Tell me what I’m chasin
If I crash into the night
Would you even know I left this highway vacant
