[Intro: VEXLESS — Quiet] Funny. Everyone assumes darkness hates the light. Not true. Sometimes we just appreciate it more. [Beat Builds Slowly] [Verse 1: VEXLESS] Night’s nearly finished, sky turning grey, Blue E92 still carrying us away, Road almost empty, Scott looking tired, But there’s something different in the way he drives. No running. No chasing. No trying to erase every fucking mistake that got us to this place. Just moving. That’s enough. Maybe life was never meant to feel polished and clean, Maybe the cracks are the reason we notice the beams. And believe me... I know cracks. I fucking live in them. [Chorus: VEXLESS — Melodic] Sunrise through the windscreen, gold across the blue, Night ain’t disappeared, it just made some room for new. Darkness in the mirror, morning straight ahead, You can carry what has hurt you without wishing yourself dead. Sunrise through the windscreen, let the whole sky burn, Maybe moving forward doesn’t mean you never turn. [Verse 2: VEXLESS] Scott carries names that still hurt when they land, Memories he’d give anything to physically hold in his hands. He carries regret. Carries love. Carries blame. Carries things nobody else could ever fucking name. VEX carries pride. Malice carries rage. And I carry every shadow Scott tried locking in a cage. But look at us now. Still fucking here. Not magically healed. Not suddenly clear. Just four pieces of one complicated head, Learning you can honour the past without living there instead. That’s something. [Chorus] Sunrise through the windscreen, gold across the blue, Night ain’t disappeared, it just made some room for new. Darkness in the mirror, morning straight ahead, You can carry what has hurt you and still choose the road instead. [Instrumental Lift — Euphoric Liquid D&B] [Verse 3: VEXLESS — Warmer] I’m not gonna tell you everything works out. That’s bullshit. Some things stay broken. Some people leave. Some questions never answer no matter how hard you fucking plead. But there’ll still be mornings. Still stupid jokes. Still cars making noises that convince Scott they’re broke. Still family. Still music. Still nights like this. Still unexpected moments you’d be fucking gutted to miss. That’s why we keep going. Not because it’s easy. Because occasionally life remembers to be beautiful without asking permission first. [Bridge: VEXLESS — Spoken] Look at that. Sunrise. Scott... don’t ruin the moment by checking the fucking engine light. [Final Chorus — Euphoric] SUNRISE THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN, GOLD ACROSS THE BLUE, WE’VE BEEN THROUGH SOME DARKNESS BUT WE FUCKING MADE IT THROUGH. NOT PERFECT. NOT FINISHED. NOT SOME FAIRY-TALE END. JUST ANOTHER ROAD, ANOTHER MORNING, ANOTHER CHANCE AGAIN. SUNRISE THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN, LET THE OLD NIGHT FADE, WE DON’T HAVE TO FEAR THE DARKNESS... WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT MADE. [Outro: VEXLESS — Soft] Keep driving, Scott. VEX is watching. Malice is quiet. I’m still here. And for once... everything’s alright. [Engine Ambience Fades] [End]
