[Verse 1]
Red lines on the dashboard
Warning lights all glow
Every sign says “turn back”
But my heart says “go”
Tires kiss the midnight
On this empty overpass
Got one shot to fix it
Got one chance to act
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the weight
Of every choice I’ve made
If I burn for this
Let me burn bright
Unafraid
[Chorus]
I’ll save the day
Even if it saves no one but you
I’ll stand my ground
When the easy thing is running from the truth
If it costs my name
If it breaks me in the fight
I’ll put it all on the line tonight
To do the right thing right
[Verse 2]
Old scars on my knuckles
From the battles I ducked
Spent years in the background
Calling it bad luck
But the clock keeps screaming
There is nowhere to hide
Heroes aren’t chosen
They just stop stepping aside
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear your voice
Cutting through the rain
“Are you coming back?”
I just answer with the flames
[Chorus]
I’ll save the day
Even if it saves no one but you
I’ll stand my ground
When the easy thing is running from the truth
If it costs my name
If it breaks me in the fight
I’ll put it all on the line tonight
To do the right thing right
[Bridge]
This is the line in the sand
This is the cut in the tape
I’m done living half of a life
I’m done looking away
If the sky falls
Let it fall
I’ll be holding up your world
One broken man
For one brave girl (oh)
[Chorus]
I’ll save the day
Even if it saves no one but you
I’ll stand my ground
When the easy thing is running from the truth
If it costs my name
If it breaks me in the fight
I’ll put it all on the line tonight
To do the right thing right
[Chorus]
I’ll save the day
With a heart that’s battered but alive
When the lights fade out
I can say at least I finally tried
If it takes my strength
If it steals my borrowed time
I’ll put it all on the line tonight
To do the right thing right
To do the right thing right (yeah)
