[Verse 1] Two twelve on the dashboard. Rain cuts sideways through the glass. Every sign looks unfamiliar. Every exit passes fast. No headlights in the mirror. Then one pair far behind. Same distance. Same speed. Same red glow every time. [Pre-Chorus] Don't stop. Don't look. Don't give it a reason. [Chorus] Redline after midnight. Black road. Red sky. Every mile gets colder and I don't know why. Redline after midnight. Keep the engine alive. Something's moving in the darkness— so I keep moving too. [Verse 2] Phone has lost the signal. Radio only breathes. Streetlights flicker one by one like something counts with me. I pass the same gas station. I pass the same dead sign. Same cracked window. Same red letters. Third time. Fourth time. Five. [Pre-Chorus] Don't stop. Don't look. Don't give it a reason. [Chorus] Redline after midnight. Black road. Red sky. Every mile gets colder and I don't know why. Redline after midnight. Keep the engine alive. Something's moving in the darkness— so I keep moving too. [Bridge] Maybe the road is longer than the map ever showed. Maybe somewhere past the city there's a place you shouldn't go. Maybe nothing is behind me. Maybe nothing knows my name. Then why do those two red lights never change? [Final Chorus] Redline after midnight. Black road. Red sky. Every mile gets colder and the distance won't die. Redline after midnight. No exit. No sign. Something's riding in the darkness— still two turns behind. Still there.
