Soft Hands, Rough Edges[Verse 1] Streetlights smear the windshield in gold and gray Your name still echoes in the static of the radio We chased the night like it owed us something pure Left fingerprints on hearts we never meant to hold [Pre-Chorus] Soft apologies dissolve in the rearview I can still hear the quiet way you broke [Chorus] We hurt people along the way In the dark between the street signs and the dawn We hurt people along the way Soft hands, rough edges, and the damage we never saw Driving through the neon haze Carrying ghosts we swore we’d leave behind We hurt people along the way And the city keeps the secrets that we can’t [Verse 2] Bassline under the skin like a slow confession Reverb on the guitars, your silence in the mix We wore each other like borrowed coats in winter Then walked away with pieces that weren’t ours to take [Pre-Chorus] The mirrors don’t lie when the lights turn red Every exit looks like another almost-love [Chorus] We hurt people along the way In the dark between the street signs and the dawn We hurt people along the way Soft hands, rough edges, and the damage we never saw Driving through the neon haze Carrying ghosts we swore we’d leave behind We hurt people along the way And the city keeps the secrets that we can’t [Bridge] (Haunting, sparse, almost whispered) I still taste the smoke of every almost Still feel the weight of every unfinished goodbye If the night could talk it would say our names Then ask us why we never stayed soft [Final Chorus] We hurt people along the way In the dark between the street signs and the dawn We hurt people along the way Soft hands, rough edges, and the damage we never saw Driving through the neon haze Carrying ghosts we swore we’d leave behind We hurt people along the way And I’m still learning how to drive without the wreckage [Outro] Late-night city breathing Windows down, heart still racing We hurt people along the way… Soft hands, rough edges…
