Lyrics
[Style: Emotional Rap/Pop]
[Mood: Late-night overthinking / pressure / exhaustion]
[Sound: Ambient synths, punchy drums, emotional melodic chorus]
[Intro]
[(car blinker… distant rain… synth pad fades in)]
1:32 in the morning…
And I’m still driving…
I don’t know where I’m going…
Just driving…
[Verse 1]
Hands on the wheel but my mind somewhere else
Everybody needs me, I can’t help myself
Pressure building up and I don’t know why
Smile on my face while I’m dead inside
I’ve been overthinking every song I drop
Every little comment telling me to stop
One says I’m great then the next says trash
Now I’m sitting here reliving my past
Listening to “Heart on My Sleeve” again
Trying to find where I lost that kid
Back when writing didn’t feel like war
Back before fear walked through that door
[Pre-Chorus]
City lights blur when the tears hit different
Trying to move on but my mind won’t listen
[Chorus]
Sitting at a red light… (red liiiight)
Mind running faster than the headlights
Everybody says I’ll be alright…
But they don’t know what it feels like
Stopped in the middle of my whole life… (whole liiiife)
Trying to tell myself it’s all fine
But I’ve been running from the warning signs…
Sitting at a red light
[Verse 2]
Fear’s been driving and I let him steer
Telling me I fell off this whole year
Hopeful, Learning to Live, all these songs
Now I don’t even know where they belong
Tried to take a break but it got worse
Turns out silence only made it hurt
Music’s the only thing that clears my head
But now I’m scared of the words I said
1 AM and my thoughts go flying
Mind moving fast while the whole world silent
Crash out or crash the car tonight…
Either way I don’t feel alright
[Pre-Chorus]
Every green light turns back into red
Every good thought gets lost in my head
[Chorus]
Sitting at a red light… (red liiiight)
Mind running faster than the headlights
Everybody says I’ll be alright…
But they don’t know what it feels like
Stopped in the middle of my whole life… (whole liiiife)
Trying to tell myself it’s all fine
But I’ve been running from the warning signs…
Sitting at a red light
[Bridge (stripped)]
[(drums cut, ambient synth + vocal)]
Maybe I don’t need to have it figured out tonight…
Maybe I just need to make it home alive
[(soft bass pulse returns)]
Maybe healing’s slower than I thought…
Maybe I’m not as lost as I was
[Final Chorus (bigger, emotional release)]
Sitting at a red lightttttttttt…
Still fighting with myself at midnight
But maybe I’m surviving more than dying…
Maybe that’s what this feels like
Stopped in the middle of my whole life…
Still trying to get my mind right
And maybe all these warning signs…
Are telling me I’m still alive
[Outro]
[(rain fades… engine idle… synth disappears)]
