"Wreck on the Highway"

V4.5+

[Verse 1] I’m flooring the gas on this rusted machine, Chasing a ghost in a fading dream. Rearview’s cracked, can’t see where I’ve been, Every wrong turn’s carved under my skin. Tires scream, but I’m stuck in the mud, Steering wheel’s stained with my own damn blood. Missed the exit, I’m spiraling fast, This road’s a graveyard of my sorry past. [Pre-Chorus] I’m a crash that’s waiting, a fuse that’s lit, Every mile I drive, I’m digging my pit. [Chorus] Wreck on the highway, burning my soul, Lost in the skid marks, out of control. Pedal to the metal, but I’m breaking apart, Driving straight to hell with a coward’s heart. Regret’s in the headlights, mistakes in the roar, I’m a junkyard king who can’t fight no more. Wreck on the highway, I’m tearing the seams, Drowning in the dust of my shattered dreams. [Verse 2] Dashboard’s flickering, my confidence bleeds, Radio’s mocking with the devil’s screeds. Swerved from the truth, hit the ditch every time, Now I’m choking on guilt like it’s engine grime. Clutch is slipping, I’m stalling again, Cursing the boy who thought he could win. This car’s my cage, and I’m locked inside, No map, no mercy, no place to hide. [Pre-Chorus] I’m a crash that’s waiting, a fuse that’s lit, Every mile I drive, I’m digging my pit. [Chorus] Wreck on the highway, burning my soul, Lost in the skid marks, out of control. Pedal to the metal, but I’m breaking apart, Driving straight to hell with a coward’s heart. Regret’s in the headlights, mistakes in the roar, I’m a junkyard king who can’t fight no more. Wreck on the highway, I’m tearing the seams, Drowning in the dust of my shattered dreams. [Bridge] Smash the windshield, let the glass rain down, Scream at the stars ‘til my voice is drowned. I’m a pile-up, a failure, a spin-out disgrace, Can’t outrun the mirror, can’t escape my face. Every dent’s a regret, every scratch a mistake, This road’s my ruin, and I’m too weak to brake. [Chorus] Wreck on the highway, burning my soul, Lost in the skid marks, out of control. Pedal to the metal, but I’m breaking apart, Driving straight to hell with a coward’s heart. Regret’s in the headlights, mistakes in the roar, I’m a junkyard king who can’t fight no more. Wreck on the highway, I’m tearing the seams, Drowning in the dust of my shattered dreams. [Outro] Engines die, but the echoes remain, A lifetime of wreckage, a lifetime of pain. Wreck on the highway, I’m fading to black, No U-turn left, and I can’t go back. Sparks in the darkness, my tires explode, This car’s my coffin, my final road. Screaming through the silence, I’m lost in the haze, A ghost in the wreckage, forever I’ll stay.
