Title: What That Would Do Vibe: Melodic / Late-Night / Reflective Tempo: 72 BPM (Slow-burn groove) Style: Think Dangerous or One Thing At A Time] VERSE 1 Sittin’ in the cab with the dash lights dim Talking ‘bout the trouble you’re having with him. Tracing out a circle on the window glass Thinking ‘bout the years you let the calendar pass. You’re staring at the gravel like a long-lost friend Wondering if the road has reached a dead-end. But before you put that Chevy into reverse... Let’s look at the "better" before we hit the "worse." PRE-CHORUS Yeah, the silence is a heavy kind of sound When you’re finally out of this little bitty town. It’s a long road out... And a lot of "maybe" and a lot of doubt. CHORUS You say he’s always mean and You say you’ve thought about leavin’ But have you considered what that would do To not only him but also you? It’s a cold, hard bed when the lights go out A lot of empty space to figure it out. Yeah, you think you’re ready for the "finally free" But it’s a long, dark walk back to used-to-be. Have you thought about what that would do? VERSE 2 You’re used to the noise and you’re used to the heat You ain’t used to the rhythm of your own heartbeat. There’s a comfort in the chaos that you’ve known so long Even when the melody is sounding all wrong. Yeah, he’s got a temper and a heavy-handed pride But you’re the only anchor in his shifting tide. Once that door clicks shut, it’s a permanent sting... It’s the weight of the house and the weight of the ring. BRIDGE Once you cross that county line, there’s no turning back Every bridge you’re burning leaves a trail of black. Is the freedom worth the price of the "we"? Think before you just go and answer me... FINAL CHORUS You say he’s always mean and You say you’ve thought about leavin’ But have you considered what that would do To not only him but also you? It’s a cold, hard bed when the lights go out A lot of empty space to figure it out. Yeah, you think you’re ready for the "finally free" But it’s a long, dark walk back to used-to-be. Have you thought about what that would do? OUTRO To not only him... But also you. Yeah, what would it do? Just a girl in a truck... Running out of luck What that would do.
