[Verse 1]
Black leather in the moonlight
Helmet on the handle
Crooked halo shine
You laughed
Said "you look half-dead"
I said "climb on and make me feel alive"
Wind cutting through confession
Your arms locked around me like a prayer
Every red light felt like judgment
Every green said "take me anywhere"
[Chorus]
You’re my angel on the backseat
Wings tucked under my jacket
Heart beating through your small hands
Pressed right into my ribs
If we crash into the darkness
Let the stars decide the damage
I would rather die in your arms
Than live through a life I never risked
[Verse 2]
Gas station coffee at midnight
Lipstick on the rim
Blood on my past
You traced every faded scar
Like you were reading futures in the cracks
Said you fell out of heaven
Or you just walked out of something worse
Either way you looked right through me
Turned every curse into a verse
[Chorus]
You’re my angel on the backseat
Wings tucked under my jacket
Heart beating through your small hands
Pressed right into my ribs
If we crash into the darkness
Let the stars decide the damage
I would rather die in your arms
Than live through a life I never risked
[Bridge]
If I burn
Then burn beside me (hey!)
Turn this road into a shrine
If I’m lost
Then you can find me
In every skid mark
Every line
I was headed for the graveyard
Now I’m racing for your kiss
Heaven’s in your whispered "don’t let go"
Right here
Like this (like this)
[Chorus]
You’re my angel on the backseat
Wings tucked under my jacket
Heart beating through your small hands
Pressed right into my ribs
If we crash into the darkness
Let the stars decide the damage
I would rather die in your arms
Than live through a life I never risked
