METER RUNNING (BRUME)

Verse 1 Midnight on the boulevard, I’m cutting through the glow, Headlights in the river rain, the city moves in slow. They talk about my family like it’s written in a crown— Paladins and precious stones… I just drive folks around. Pre-Chorus But every street has secrets, every corner has a tell, A suitcase gone, a con man grin—Paris rings my bell. Feufeu on my shoulder, tiny fire in his eyes, Whispering, “Keep rolling, girl—your fate is in the rise.” Chorus Let the meter run, let the night unfold, Peugeot 201—my home on the road. I don’t chase the impossible, I don’t beg for signs, I follow little sparks where the lost light shines. Let the city talk, let the rumors bloom— I’m Brume in the dark, turning mist into room. Verse 2 Cafés at the sunrise, pockets just enough, I taste the whole world’s corners, I laugh like I’m tough. Police shake their heads like, “How’s she always there?” I wink and take the shortcut through the honest air. Pre-Chorus Gemstones are witnesses, silent in the hand, They watched empires tumble like sand. If I bet my life on treasure, it better burn true— Not a throne, not a name… just a reason to move. Chorus Let the meter run, let the night unfold, Peugeot 201—my home on the road. I don’t chase the impossible, I don’t beg for signs, I follow little sparks where the lost light shines. Let the city talk, let the rumors bloom— I’m Brume in the dark, turning mist into room. Bridge And there’s a blue, quiet crystal—heavy as a sigh, I change the subject fast when you ask me why. Some stories don’t want daylight, some hearts don’t want proof… So I grip the wheel tighter— And I choose the route. Final Chorus (short) Let the meter run—hear the engine sing, Fire without form, fearless heart in the swing. Paris in my rearview, tomorrow in my hands— I’m Brume on the road… where destiny lands.
