00:00Midnight highway, rear view full of smoke
00:09Foot on the gas like I'm chasing some ghost
00:15Winds howling louder than the thoughts in my head
00:22Trying to outrun the words we never said
00:30Ashtray fold, dashboard lighting up
00:33Your voice fades out with each mile I cut
00:36Hairs tied back, jaws tied with pride
00:39But my hands still shake on the passenger side
00:43I ain't looking back, not tonight
00:47Though your voice keeps humming in the static line
00:50If you hear me, darling, please don't drive blind
00:53This road's a ghost and the pain's by design
00:56You're gone, but you're still mine
00:59In the static on the line
01:02I left the porch light on like it makes a damn change
01:08Your empty chair still pulling me into your pain
01:15Phone's gone dark, no call, no fight
01:20Just the hum of your tires through a sleepless night
01:26The sky cracked open when your taillights faded
01:32I prayed to the static that our love ain't wasted
01:35Girl, if you're running, I hope you find peace
01:37But part of me's bleeding on these backseat dreams
01:41I ain't looking back, not tonight
01:44I ain't looking back, not tonight
01:45Though your voice keeps humming in the static line
01:48If you hear me, darling, please don't drive blind
01:52This road's a ghost and the pain's by design
01:55You're gone, but you're still mine
01:58In the static on the line
02:01Red-eyed moon, same one you'd stare at
02:06Feels like you're here in this old torn down track
02:09I scream at the silence, but it don't scream back
02:12Just the crackle of us and the radio's black
02:15It's like guitar bends like a whale through distance
02:20Drum beats slows like a heart under pressure
02:23Reverb rises, mimics a sob muffled in steel
02:28I ain't sure if it's freedom or fear
02:32But I keep driving like the answers are near
02:35Your song just played, it wrecked my guard
02:38Guess some ghosts still ride shotgun in the dark
02:41I ain't looking back, I can't afford to cry
02:46But your voice still cuts through that static sky
02:49If you hear me, darling, no, I ain't fine
02:52You're somewhere between the loss and the sign
02:55On a road with no stop signs
02:58Where the static on the line
03:01So drive on, baby, if you must
03:06But I'll be echoing in the dust
03:10You're newspaper line
03:15You're somewhere between the 2nd inside and the 2nd inside sea
03:20And 25OW
