Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Motel curtains barely close
Neon buzzing on my clothes
Another town I don’t belong
Same old bed, same empty phone
Coffee cold in a paper cup
Map on the dash all folded up
Every road sign’s spelling “stay”
But your ghost keeps pulling me away
[Chorus]
I keep running from the hurt
Down these long, low, broken roads
But the wind still whispers your name
Through every crack in every window
I chase miles, I chase smoke
Leave my heart in every town I cross
Thought the highway might wipe you clean
But your shadow rides in my rearview, never lost
[Verse 2]
Gas-station light on my tired face
Clerk says, “Son, you from this place?”
I just shake my head and pay
Can’t remember home anyway
Moon on the hood like an old bruise
Radio talking like it knows the truth
Says “love’ll heal you,” what a lie
Some wounds just drive, they never die
[Chorus]
I keep running from the hurt
Down these long, low, broken roads
But the wind still whispers your name
Through every crack in every window
I chase miles, I chase smoke
Leave my heart in every town I cross
Thought the highway might wipe you clean
But your shadow rides in my rearview, never lost
[Bridge]
If I ever stop, I’ll have to feel
Every word, every night, every “this is real”
So I press that pedal, keep it all unknown
Guess a man finds comfort in being alone (so alone)
[Chorus]
I keep running from the hurt
Down these long, low, broken roads
But the wind still whispers your name
Through every crack in every window
I chase miles, I chase smoke
Every sunrise just cuts me close
Ain’t no mercy in these lines of chrome
Never finding peace
So forever I roam
