Rearview Static

[Verse 1] I took the long way home Just to miss your block Headlights on the rain Like a hand on my throat Your name in my pocket Folded with the smoke I read it in the dark Then I let it go [Pre-Chorus] And I know what I was doing When I kept the door half-latched Knew I'd hear your laugh again If I kept coming back [Chorus] Driving past the place Where we used to fade I keep one eye on the road One eye on the pain You still pull at me From the edge of my frame I say I'm over it Then I do it again [Verse 2] There's a red mark on my wrist From the old seat belt Same song on the radio Like it knew me well I don't call it missing That would sound too clean It's more like a shadow Stuck between the scenes [Pre-Chorus] And I know what I was doing When I kept the door half-latched Knew I'd hear your laugh again If I kept coming back [Chorus] Driving past the place Where we used to fade I keep one eye on the road One eye on the pain You still pull at me From the edge of my frame I say I'm over it Then I do it again [Bridge] Maybe I liked the bruises Maybe I liked the chase Maybe your quiet distance Gave my doubt a face Now the glass keeps talking With your ghost in it And I don't know if I left Or just went halfway [Chorus] Driving past the place Where we used to fade I keep one eye on the road One eye on the pain You still pull at me From the edge of my frame I say I'm over it Then I do it again [Outro] I do it again I do it again I turn that corner slow And let the dark stay close
