Verse 1
I keep driving roads I don’t recognize
Same turns, different nights
There’s a weight in my hands I can’t put down
Even when you’re by my side
You look at me like I’m something whole
Like I’ve got somewhere to go
But I’m just stitching pieces of a past
I don’t even wanna know
Pre-Chorus
I’m good at pretending I’m fine
But I don’t even believe me half the time
Chorus
I’m lost in the noise of the life I made
Every wrong turn still echoes my name
I got love in front of me, I know it’s true
But I don’t know how to not ruin you
I’m stuck in between who I was and who I’m supposed to be
And I hate that you’re caught in the middle with me
If I hold you too close, I might break something real
‘Cause I don’t even trust the way I feel
Verse 2
I say your name like I mean it, yeah
But there’s a silence right after that scares me to death
‘Cause what if I can’t be the man you see
What if I’m just what’s left of me
There’s ghosts in the choices I never fixed
And they follow me into every kiss
You deserve something steady, something clear
And I’m just standing here
Pre-Chorus
With one foot in and one foot gone
I’ve been this way for too damn long
Chorus
I’m lost in the noise of the life I made
Every wrong turn still echoes my name
I got love in front of me, I know it’s true
But I don’t know how to not ruin you
I’m stuck in between who I was and who I’m supposed to be
And I hate that you’re caught in the middle with me
If I hold you too close, I might break something real
‘Cause I don’t even trust the way I feel
Bridge (quiet, almost spoken)
I wish I could be simple
The way you make it seem
Like love isn’t something
That slips through me
I wish I could choose you
Without looking back
But every step forward
Feels like something I lack
Breakdown Chorus (stripped)
I’m lost…
Yeah I’m lost…
And you’re the only place that feels like home
But I don’t know how to stay
Final Chorus (full, aching)
I’m lost in the noise of the life I made
Trying to outrun every past mistake
I got love in front of me, yeah it’s you
But I don’t know how to follow it through
I’m stuck in between what I fear and what I need
And I hate that you see something good in me
If I let you all in, will you still be here
When you find out I disappear?
Outro
So I keep driving roads I don’t recognize…
Hoping one day I’ll stop… and choose a life.
