Verse 1 I’ve been driving past the places we used to go, Letting the white lines pull me somewhere I don’t know. The radio keeps choosing songs that sound like you, And every chorus feels like something I meant to tell the truth. Pre‑Chorus I roll the windows down just to hear the night, But all it does is echo back the things we didn’t get right. Chorus These hollow roads keep calling out your name, Like they remember who I was before the fall. I chase the dark just to feel something again, But the headlights only show me what I lost. And I keep driving like the distance might forgive, But these hollow roads don’t let me forget. Verse 2 I pass the exit where you told me you were leaving, Didn’t slow down then, but I’m braking now for no good reason. Funny how the past shows up in every turn, Like the ghosts of what we were still haven’t learned. Pre‑Chorus I try to drown the memories in the engine’s roar, But they climb into the passenger seat like they’ve been here before. Chorus These hollow roads keep calling out your name, Like they remember who I was before the fall. I chase the dark just to feel something again, But the headlights only show me what I lost. And I keep driving like the distance might forgive, But these hollow roads don’t let me forget. Bridge Maybe someday I’ll take a road that doesn’t hurt, One that doesn’t look like the map of us. But tonight I’m just a shadow in the driver’s seat, Trying to outrun the version of me you couldn’t keep. Final Chorus These hollow roads still whisper where you went, And I’m learning how to follow without breaking. I chase the night like it might give me back my breath, But it only gives me truth I’m scared to face. So I keep driving, hoping someday I’ll forgive, All the hollow roads that lead me back to this.
