Verse 1
Cold air through the window, coffee’s gone lukewarm
City lights smeared out in the rainstorm
I’ve had nights I swore I wouldn’t make it
Days where I wanted out but couldn’t fake it
Spent too much time chasing speed
Thinking that’s all I’d ever need
Till the road bit back and I learned the hard way
How fast everything can fade away
⸻
Chorus
Still on the road, no clear destination
Just a tank half full and too much temptation
Skyline’s gone but I’m still rolling slow
Don’t know where it ends, I just know I’ll go
⸻
Verse 2
Some friends turned to strangers, some strangers stayed close
Some stories I’ll tell, and some nobody knows
Love left quick, trust took longer to fade
Guess we’re all just making peace with the mess we made
I’ve been broke, I’ve been lucky, I’ve been reckless as hell
But somehow I’m still here to tell
Whatever broke me didn’t keep me down
I just kept moving to the next small town
⸻
Bridge
Every wrong turn, every sharp bend
Made me someone I can defend
If the past comes knocking, I won’t hide
I’ll just tell it, “you’re the reason I survived”
⸻
Solo (slow synth with reverb, bass drops out halfway, drums pull back — space to breathe)
⸻
Chorus 2
Still on the road, no clear destination
Just a tank half full and too much temptation
Skyline’s gone but I’m still rolling slow
Don’t know where it ends, I just know I’ll go
⸻
Verse 3
There were nights I thought God forgot my name
Sat in the dark trying to pray through the shame
But I found Him in the quiet, in the break between beats
In the weight of my chest and the drag of my feet
And I’m not who I was when this all began
Took the long way around just to be this man
And even if I’m driving alone tonight
There’s a peace in the glow of the dashboard light
⸻
Outro
Still on the road… still on the road
Even when it’s cold… still on the road
Skyline fades but I know… still on the road
And I’m not turning back… still on the road
