[© 2026 cptjackzerow Lyrics are mine, but you can use it too welcome w/ credit ♥ ] ──────────────────────────────────── [Intro] ...there you are don't turn around not yet [Verse 1] Something sweet is pullin' me your way You don't know it yet but you already prey The alley smells like rust and something I won't name I find it... comforting, honestly, all the same [Pre-Chorus] I'm just behind you like a second shadow, baby The fog's a little thick but that's just... atmospheric, maybe You keep looking back that's sweet, that's so endearing I always lose things in the dark... funny you keep appearing [Chorus] It's just my route, I swear I walked it yesterday It's just my route, I know exactly where to stray Your heartbeat's louder than you think, babe, it's okay It's just my route and you're exactly where I came [Verse 2] Boy you lookin' Lost.. (yeah) Out here all alone (oh) Lemme show you 'round This side of town (mm) Somewhere we can go Ain't nobody gotta know Got a place that's close Where it's warm inside (step inside) You ain't gotta know my name (no, no) Just follow where I take you babe (yeah, yeah) Somethin' 'bout the way you move Got me thinkin' you could use A real good time tonight [Pre-Chorus] I'm just behind you like a second shadow, baby The fog's a little thick but that's just... atmospheric, maybe You're already leaning in, that's so endearing Funny how the ones I invite... keep disappearing [Chorus] It's just my route, I swear I walked it yesterday It's just my route, I know exactly where to stray Your heartbeat's louder than you think, babe, it's okay It's just my route... and you're exactly where I came [Instrumental solo] It's just my route It's just my route It's just my route [Bridge] The puddles catch my reflection One eye burns orange-red The other's just... watching, clinical, like he said... (he said) He stops to fix his collar.. I stop to check the sky Orion's out tonight... beautiful time to die [Final Chorus] It's just my route, I swear I walked it every day It's just my route, I know exactly where to stray Your heartbeat's quieter than before, babe It's just my route... and every route ends just the same [Instrumental solo] It's just my route It's just my route It's just my route [Post-Chorus] I've been walking here since way before tonight You smell like iron, cedar, something almost right Hungry is such a... limited word for my appetite [Outro] Nothing personal, it's simply... what I do It's just my route It always ends with someone like you
