[Intro] Yeah… Another night, another fight inside my head, Eyes wide open, wishing I was dead tired instead. But I know where I go when the darkness takes control… I fire up the bike… and I ride to save my soul. [Verse 1] These demons in my head, they don’t ever sleep, They whisper in the darkness, getting under my skin deep. I toss and turn for hours, staring at the ceiling, Fighting with my thoughts, trying to find a different feeling. Anxiety comes knocking, depression kicks the door, Every night the same battle, I can’t take much more. But when the morning comes, I know what I gotta do, Put my helmet on my head and let the engine pull me through. [Pre-Chorus] Twist that throttle, hear that motor scream, Leave the darkness somewhere back behind me. The road don’t judge me, the road don’t lie, Just me and my machine underneath the open sky. [Chorus] I ride away from the demons in my head, Chasing down the miles till the darkness turns to red. With the engine roaring, I can finally breathe, For a little while, those demons let me be. I ride through the night, I ride through the pain, Every mile I take helps me find myself again. When the world gets heavy and I can’t see the light, I fire up my motorcycle… and I ride. [Verse 2] Four wheels might get me somewhere, but two wheels set me free, There’s something about that open road that brings me back to me. The wind cuts through the silence, the engine shakes my bones, For a few precious miles, I don’t feel so alone. I don’t need an answer, I don’t need a cure, I just need that highway stretching out before. The demons might be waiting when I finally turn back home, But while I’m on that motorcycle, I’m stronger than I’ve known. [Bridge] Maybe I can’t silence every voice inside, Maybe these demons are along for the ride. But they don’t own me, they don’t control my name, Every mile I ride, I take back my strength again. [Final Chorus] I ride away from the demons in my head, Chasing down the miles till the darkness turns to red. With the engine roaring, I can finally breathe, For a little while, those demons let me be. I ride through the night, I ride through the pain, Every mile I take helps me find myself again. And when tomorrow comes, I’ll get back on my feet, ’Cause every road I ride makes me stronger underneath. [Outro] So if you see me riding when the whole world’s asleep, I’m not running from my life… I’m fighting to keep it. Helmet on… engine alive… The demons can chase me— But tonight, I ride.
