[Verse 1 - soft, minimal, intimate]
I’ve been driving
Past 2AM
Windows down
Cold air rushing in
Radio’s on
But it’s just noise to me
Same thoughts keep
Running back again
If I slow down
It all catches up
So I keep going
So I don’t get stuck
⸻
[Pre-Chorus - light build, tension rising]
If I slow down
It all comes back
I passed your street
And didn’t turn back
⸻
[Chorus – emotional, driving, natural flow]
I don’t wanna feel like this tonight
So I keep driving
Blowing past red lights
If I stop moving
It all hits at once
So I keep running
From what’s inside
I don’t wanna think
I don’t wanna know
So I turn it up
Try to let it go
If I keep moving
Maybe I’ll be alright
I just need one night
Where it all goes quiet
⸻
[Verse 2 - reflective, visual, grounded]
Street signs blur
I don’t read the names
Missed that turn
But I don’t change lanes
Saw your face
In a passing light
Then it fades out
Every single time
Hands on the wheel
But I’m not here
Just chasing quiet
In another gear
⸻
[Pre-Chorus - stronger build]
If I slow down
I feel it break
So I keep moving
Just to stay awake
⸻
[Chorus - bigger, more intensity]
I don’t wanna feel like this tonight
So I keep driving
Blowing past red lights
If I stop moving
It all hits at once
So I keep running
From what’s inside
I don’t wanna think
I don’t wanna know
So I turn it up
Try to let it go
If I keep moving
Maybe I’ll be alright
I just need one night
Where it all goes quiet
⸻
[Bridge - stripped down, more human]
I can feel it creeping
When it gets quiet
Every time I stop
I can’t fight it
So I keep the engine
Running in my chest
If I don’t slow down
I don’t have to face it yet
⸻
[Break - soft]
Don’t slow down…
Not now…
⸻
[Final Chorus - full, emotional]
I don’t wanna feel like this tonight
So I keep driving
Blowing past red lights
If I stop moving
It all hits at once
So I keep running
From what’s inside
I don’t wanna think
I don’t wanna know
So I turn it up
Try to let it go
If I keep moving
Maybe I’ll be alright
I just need one night
Where it all goes quiet
⸻
[Outro - fading, exhausted]
Just keep driving…
Just keep moving…
Don’t slow down…
Not tonight…
