Spinning Out

Empty bottle on the passenger seat, cracked dreams

Streetlights smear like tears on a cracked screen

Chasing ghosts in the rearview, shadow schemes

The gas tank full, but the heart just bleeds

Everything’s gone, it slipped through my hands

Grains of sand, drowning in a whiskey strand

Can’t rewind, no, this ain’t a second chance

Just me and the road, a funeral dance

Spinning out, can’t slow down

Heartbeat lost in the engine’s sound

Drink it away, drown it somehow

But the pain just laughs, says, "Not right now"

Dashboard confession, speed’s my only prayer

Wheels hug the curves, but no one’s there

Love turned to vapor, it dissolved in air

Memories ride shotgun, pain don’t share

The world’s a blur, I don’t need to see

Eyes closed tight, it’s just me versus me

Each mile’s a dirge, every turn a plea

Burnt rubber writes my eulogy

Spinning out, can’t slow down

Heartbeat lost in the engine’s sound

Drink it away, drown it somehow

But the pain just laughs, says, "Not right now"

Pedal buried deep, the world comes unglued

Dark sky roaring like it knows my mood

Lines on the asphalt, all jagged and skewed

Whiskey-soaked thoughts turn violent and crude

Siren songs scream from the radio dial

My reflection sneers, wearing death’s own smile

The grip on the wheel grows wicked and wild

Every heartbeat feels like a courtroom trial

Spinning out, can’t slow down

Heartbeat lost in the engine’s sound

Drink it away, drown it somehow

But the pain just laughs, says, “Not right now”

Wind rips through the cab like it wants me gone

Streetlights explode, flicker, then they’re gone

Chaos waits ahead like a ticking bomb

And part of me whispers, “Just drive on.”

The night is a beast that finally breaks free

Glass, smoke, and thunder closing in on me

The world tilts sideways — too dark to see

And everything crashes where fate wants it to be

Spinning out, can’t slow down

Heartbeat lost in the engine’s sound

Drink it away, drown it somehow

But the pain just laughs, says, “Not right now”
