[Verse 1]
Skyline blurred behind the glass
Mile after mile of maybe
Empty fields
A crooked fence
All this space inside me
Hands on the wheel
White knuckles loose
Radio low
I’m breathing
Every doubt in the rearview fades
Tiny towns receding
[Pre-Chorus]
I was living in a small frame
Corners closing in around me
Now the road runs like a long flame
Pulling every shadow out of me
[Chorus]
Open horizon
Nothing but blue in my eyes
Heart getting lighter
Rising with the changing light
I don’t know where I’m going
But I feel the ground let go
Open horizon
I finally let the future roll
[Verse 2]
Exit signs like quiet prayers
Names I’ll never answer
Old mistakes in a shallow grave
Somewhere back there
Smaller
Wind sneaks in through a cracked door
Hair across my face
I’m laughing
For the first time I’m not looking back
I can feel the moment happen
[Pre-Chorus]
Every mile is a new name
Every breath another story
All the weight that I once claimed
Falls behind me in the glory
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] Headlights carve a silver line
Through the dark that used to own me
[falsetto harmony] I’m not afraid of the unknown sky
It’s the only thing that’s holding me [crescendo]
[Chorus]
