[Verse 1]
Dust clouds in my rearview, tires spit regret
Moon hangs low, a lasso, pulling on my neck
Old whiskey on my breath, dreams I can’t collect
Shadows of the past chase, they ain’t done with me yet
[Prechorus]
The stars blink slow, judging my sin
The road hums low, where does it end?
[Chorus]
Midnight run, where the dark feels safe
Outrunning ghosts I can’t escape
Midnight run, no turning back
Every mile’s a memory, fading to black
[Verse 2]
Boot heels tap, rhythm of the dirt road blues
City lights a mirage, I can’t choose
Heart beats a bassline, thumping out truths
Soul split wide open, stitched with bad news
[Prechorus]
The coyotes howl, calling my name
The night’s cold growl, plays a wicked game
[Chorus]
Midnight run, where the dark feels safe
Outrunning ghosts I can’t escape
Midnight run, no turning back
Every mile’s a memory, fading to black
