Red Lights Ahead

Intro

(Engine on)

(No way back)

Three two one

Verse 1

I got a head full of noise and a foot on the floor

Been running from myself now I'm asking for more

Red line blinking like a warning in my head

Every road I take leads to the things I dread

I keep shifting gears but I'm stuck in the same place

Fast lane living with a blank on my face

Everybody says that I should slow it down

But I can't hear a word when the world gets loud

Pre-Chorus

I feel the pressure building up inside

One more second till I cross that line

If I lose control will I finally know

Who I am beneath the overload

Chorus

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Running straight into the red lights

I don't know if I'll survive

But I'm done just staying alive

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Tearing through the fear inside

If I crash into the unknown

At least I'll know I chose my road

Post-Chorus

Go go

I can't turn it off

Go go

I'm taking it too far

Verse 2

Static in my veins got a glitch in my system

Every time I fall I find another reason

To pick up the pieces put the past in the rear

But the ghosts in the mirror keep pulling me near

I've been playing safe with a heart on mute

Wearing fake smiles like a tailored suit

Now the pressure breaks and the truth comes through

I'm not scared of the road I'm scared of staying you

Pre-Chorus

I feel the pressure building up inside

One more second till I cross that line

If I lose control will I finally know

Who I am beneath the overload

Chorus

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Running straight into the red lights

I don't know if I'll survive

But I'm done just staying alive

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Tearing through the fear inside

If I crash into the unknown

At least I'll know I chose my road

Bridge

Maybe I've been chasing an escape

Maybe every mile's another mistake

I hear my own voice cutting through the sound

Saying there's a reason I'm still here now

Build-Up

I DON'T NEED ANOTHER WARNING

I DON'T NEED ANOTHER SIGN

If the fear is in the driver's seat

THEN TONIGHT I'M TAKING MINE

Breakdown

CUT THE STATIC

BREAK THE FRAME

I'M NOT RUNNING

FROM MY NAME

NO MORE SILENCE

NO MORE LIES

I'M STILL HERE

I'M STILL ALIVE

Final Chorus

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Running straight into the red lights

I can feel the fear collide

But I'm done with living half-alive

THIS IS MY TEST DRIVE

Now I'm looking fear straight in the eyes

I don't need to know the road

I just need to take control

Outro

(Engine off)

For the first time

I can hear myself
