[Verse 1]
Keys in the cup, blue dash on my hands
Leaving the noise where the county road bends
No list to finish, no call to return
Just tires on asphalt and miles left to burn
[Pre-Chorus]
The motor settles into one low tone
A moving room where I can be alone
[Chorus]
I drive all night till the thoughts lose shape
Past the last town and the wide-open gates
Engines roll like a slow heartbeat
Road under me, calm underneath
I drive all night, let the silence steer
Every mile makes the inside clear
When the runners pass and the engines roar
I feel my mind come back to the floor
[Verse 2]
Truck-stop coffee cooling beside the seat
White lane markers keeping time with the beat
A service road curves by the old quarry wall
The world gets smaller, then nothing at all
[Pre-Chorus]
The motor settles into one low tone
A moving room where I can be alone
[Chorus]
I drive all night till the thoughts lose shape
Past the last town and the wide-open gates
Engines roll like a slow heartbeat
Road under me, calm underneath
I drive all night, let the silence steer
Every mile makes the inside clear
When the runners pass and the engines roar
I feel my mind come back to the floor
[Bridge]
Let them run hard, let the whole line shake
Hear the clean pull when the corners wake
I do not chase them, I just let them fade
Their thunder leaves the quiet it made
[Final Chorus]
I drive all night till the thoughts lose shape
Past the last town and the wide-open gates
Engines roll like a slow heartbeat
Road under me, calm underneath
I drive all night, let the silence steer
Every mile makes the inside clear
When the runners pass and the engines roar
I feel my mind come back to the floor
[Outro]
Keys in the cup, dawn at the bend
The road goes quiet, and I can begin
