Title: “ No Help Out Here” Written by 12Gauge858 Music Performed by AI Artist Lanny Deal (Intro — truck idling, air brakes hiss, rain on windshield, distant thunder) (spoken — smoky, raspy) Three a.m... Middle of nowhere... Check the tires... Check the oil... Check the belts... Because out here... Mistakes cost more than money... (gothic choir slowly rises) There no help out here... Verse 1 Pre-trip flashlight in my hand Walking circles round this Peterbilt 389 Kick them tires one by one Praying tonight ain’t the night something comes undone Oil good Belts tight Air lines locked and clean Coffee in a stained-up thermos And diesel in my dreams Dispatch only sees numbers Don’t see these empty roads Or the places GPS sends you Where God forgot the roads Pre-Chorus Sun drops fast Shadows grow long One wrong stop And everything goes wrong (echoes) wrong... wrong... wrong... Chorus There no help out here When the breakdown lights come on When your signal disappears And you’re twenty miles from anyone There no help out here At them rest stops after dark Some folks smile too friendly With bad intentions in their heart Cross around my neck Hand tight on the wheel Out here survival The only thing that feels real There no help out here (haunting choir) no help... no help... no help out here... Verse 2 Pulled into a truck stop Little past Tennessee line Saw a hitchhiker waving Something didn’t feel right Young driver parked beside me Door cracked open wide Told him lock it up brother This world ain’t always kind Seen towns where eyes follow Like you ain’t welcome there Fuel up quick Keep moving Don’t linger anywhere Pre-Chorus Fatigue starts whispering “Just close your eyes” But tired kills quicker Than most realize (echoes) stay awake... stay awake... Chorus There no help out here When the weather turns mean Ice stacking on the mirrors And fog eats everything There no help out here When your family calls your phone Asking when you’re coming home While you freezing all alone Air brakes sighing Engine cold with fear Out here truckers know There no help out here Bridge (music drops — dark piano + choir only) If I disappear tonight Tell mama I fought hard Tell my babies daddy loved ‘em Even chasing these miles this far This highway feeds America But it takes pieces too And some names never make it home (whisper) Some names become news... Final Chorus (Big Choir / Cinematic Lift) There no help out here So check them tires again Check your oil Check your belts Before you roll my friend There no help out here Keep your head upon a swivel Trust your gut Lock them doors Because evil rides these interstates too (massive choir) There no help out here There no help out here Outro (truck engine starts) (spoken softly) 389 rolling west... Another night... Another prayer... (whisper fades) There no help out here...
