Streetlight halos

Verse 1

Streetlight halos on a cracked windshield

Every promise feels half-revealed

I wear bad timing like a second skin

Every door swings out, I’m locking in

Your laugh cuts sharp through the radio noise

Like a truth I don’t get to enjoy

I count the lines on the yellow road

Like maybe they’ll tell me where to go

Pre-Chorus

I play it cool but my hands still shake

Every second feels like a stake

I bite my tongue till the moment’s gone

Say it now or I’m moving on

Chorus

We’re burning bright in a losing town

Faking smiles till the walls come down

If love’s a fight, I don’t back away

I’ll lose my voice just to make you stay

Meet me where the skyline bends

Where the night still makes amends

Say my name, say it strong

Prove we weren’t wrong all along

Verse 2

Your shadow dances on the dashboard glow

Like it knows what I don’t wanna know

Every mile pulls you further away

Every silence’s got something to say

I flip my phone face down again

Like that’ll save me in the end

I swear I’m fine, I swear I’m brave

Still scared of the words I won’t say

Pre-Chorus

The clock keeps ticking like it’s aware

Of everything I’m too afraid to dare

I draw a line, then step across

Still counting up what it’s gonna cost

Chorus

We’re burning bright in a losing town

Faking smiles till the walls come down

If love’s a fight, I don’t back away

I’ll lose my voice just to make you stay

Meet me where the skyline bends

Where the night still makes amends

Say my name, say it strong

Prove we weren’t wrong all along

Bridge

If this goes up, if this goes down

I’d rather crash than turn around

I don’t need safe, I don’t need sure

I need something real, something pure

Breakdown

Hands up, heart out, nothing to hide

We’re too close now to run or slide

Let the truth hit, let it sting

I’m all in on everything

Final Chorus

We’re burning bright, no looking back

Every risk written in cracks

If love’s a flame, I’ll stand too close

Even knowing what it costs

Meet me where the skyline bends

Broken rules and best intentions

Say my name, say it strong

Prove we weren’t wrong all along

Outro

Sun coming up on a restless street

Still chasing hope on tired feet
