FUCK THE BRAKES

[Verse 1]
I tried to play it cool, keep my hands on the wheel
Keep a little distance from the way that you feel
But every time you say my name, my whole world shakes
I’m tired of pretending that my heart has brakes

I told myself, “Be careful, don’t fall too deep”
But you got into places that I thought I could keep
Locked up tight behind the damage and the mistakes
Now I’m standing at the edge like, fuck the brakes

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it’s reckless
Maybe it’s fate
Maybe I’m done being scared
Of something this great

[Chorus]
Fuck the brakes, I’m flying through the red lights
I want your name running wild through my head all night
I know love can crash, I know hearts can break
But I’d rather feel everything than run away
Fuck the brakes, let the whole world spin
I don’t wanna hold back, I just wanna fall in
Maybe I’m crazy, maybe that’s okay
When it comes to you, baby, fuck the brakes

[Verse 2]
You make the old ghosts go quiet for a while
You make me want to risk it every time that you smile
And I know I should breathe, take it slow, give it space
But you feel like a song I was born to chase

I’ve spent too many nights with my heart in a cage
Trying to act unbothered, trying to turn the page
But you came like thunder, no warning, no escape
Now I’m done with the fear, so fuck the brakes

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it’s reckless
Maybe it’s real
Maybe I’m finally learning
How love is supposed to feel

[Bridge]
I don’t need forever written down tonight
I just need your hand in mine, your eyes in mine
Let tomorrow be tomorrow, let the stars decide
Right now I’m done with hiding on the safer side

[Final Chorus]
Fuck the brakes, I’m done being careful
You make this broken little heart feel powerful
I know the past still whispers, “Run away”
But I’m choosing you, I’m choosing us, fuck the brakes
Fuck the brakes, let the whole world spin
I don’t wanna hold back, I just wanna fall in
Maybe it’s reckless, maybe that’s okay
When it comes to you, baby, fuck the brakes

[Outro]
No more slowing down
No more running away
My heart is in your hands
Fuck the brakes
