[Verse 1] The house is quiet, the lights are gone But I swear I hear you still hold on Your coffee’s cold, but it’s still here Like you might walk back through the years The engine shakes in the midnight air Like it’s screaming that you’re not there I can’t stay in this broken room It’s just ghosts and fading perfume [Pre-Chorus] I hit the key, I slam the door I won’t be trapped in this no more [Chorus] (BIG / STADIUM) I LOST MYSELF OUT ON THE OPEN ROAD! Under neon skies and the heavy load! Every mile, it’s your name I scream! Like you’re still inside my dream! I LOST MYSELF AND I CAN’T GO BACK! Burning headlights on a midnight track! If home was ever in your eyes… Then I’m driving straight through all these lies! [Verse 2] The radio bleeds out our song again I try to kill it, but it won’t end Your laugh still crashes through my mind Like a ghost I just can’t leave behind Truck stop angels in pouring rain They don’t know anything ‘bout this pain Every face just fades to grey But you don’t ever fade away [Pre-Chorus] I’m flying blind through the broken dark With your memory tearing my heart [Chorus] (BIG / STADIUM) I LOST MYSELF OUT ON THE OPEN ROAD! Under neon skies and the heavy load! Every mile, it’s your name I scream! Like you’re still inside my dream! I LOST MYSELF AND I CAN’T GO BACK! Burning headlights on a midnight track! If home was ever in your eyes… Then I’m driving straight through all these lies! [Bridge] (build-up → explosive) Maybe someday I’ll slow it down Somewhere the noise don’t chase me down But tonight I feel that storm inside And I can’t turn off this ride (drums build / guitars rise) I’M STILL RUNNING! I’M STILL BROKEN! BUT I’M ALIVE IN EVERY MILE UNFOLDED! [Final Chorus] (MAX ENERGY / FULL BAND) I LOST MYSELF OUT ON THE OPEN ROAD! Screaming louder than the thunder rolls! Every turn is a battle I fight! In the burning edges of the night! I LOST MYSELF AND I WON’T GO BACK! With the world on fire behind my tracks! If love was ever my home at all… Then I’m answering that final call! [Outro] (drop + repeat) And I drive… AND I DRIVE… AND I DRIVE…
