Headlights cut through the desert cold
Radio hums a song I used to know
Rearview mirror full of fading towns
Foot on the gas but the wheels feel slow
Stars don’t answer when I call their names
Miles don’t measure what I need to say
I’m chasing echoes of who I was
Dust in my teeth and the wind in my lungs
Somewhere out there’s a version of me
That knows how to bend but won’t ever break
Motel sign flickers like a dying vow
Coffee cup rings on the dashboard now
Highway lines stretch into the black
Talking to ghosts in the static crack
Stars don’t answer when I call their names
Miles don’t measure what I need to say
I’m chasing echoes of who I was
Dust in my teeth and the wind in my lungs
Somewhere out there’s a version of me
That knows how to bend but won’t ever break
Maybe home’s just a word I stole
From a life that never fit my bones
I’m chasing echoes of who I was
Dust in my teeth and the wind in my lungs
Somewhere out there’s a version of me
That knows how to bend but won’t ever break
