Lyrics
Windows down and my mind is up
Driving with windows down, deep in thought
I'll see neon lights and they'll be enough
Seeing neon lights, finding satisfaction in them
Enough to keep you in the back of my brain
Neon lights symbolize memories lingering in the mind
While I head on down the fast lane
Continuing on a fast-paced journey, leaving things behind
And I know you're doing alright
Aware that the other person is doing well
And I know I'm gonna be alright
Confident about personal well-being
Now you're standing in the headlights
Imagery of the other person appearing unexpectedly
Staring back at me
Eye contact in the headlights, a moment of connection
In the arms of something pristine
The other person in a pure and ideal state
A silent reverie
A quiet contemplation or dream-like state
Take back your tongue
Encouragement to speak freely
And all those thing we might've done
Reflecting on missed opportunities
You're gone, the wheel has been spun
Realization that the person is gone, fate decided
Dazed in red, foot down on green
Feeling disoriented, moving forward
Try to stay sober, try to stay clean
Struggling to stay clear-headed
There's a method to this madness
Suggesting there's a purpose in chaos
Night driving to escape some sadness
Night driving as a way to escape sorrow
As I head on down the fast lane
Continuing the journey at a fast pace
I know I'm going to be alright
Reassurance of personal well-being
Now you're standing in the headlights
Repeat of unexpected encounter in the headlights
Staring back at me
Eye contact in the arms of something pure
In the arms of something pristine
Repeating the theme of a serene contemplation
A silent reverie
Continuation of a silent dream-like state
Take back your tongue
Encouragement to express oneself freely
And all those thing we might've done
Reflecting on missed opportunities (repeated)
You're gone, the wheel has been spun
Acknowledging the person is gone, fate decided (repeated)
So long passenger
Bid farewell to the passenger, suggesting departure
You'll forget I was ever here
The idea of being forgotten after leaving
Now you're standing in the headlights
Repetition of unexpected encounter in the headlights
Staring back at me
Reiteration of eye contact in the headlights
In the arms of something pristine
Repetition of being in the arms of something pure
A silent reverie
Repetition of a quiet contemplation or dream-like state
Take back your tongue
Encouragement to speak freely (repeated)
And all those thing we might've done
Reflecting on missed opportunities (repeated)
You're gone, the wheel has been spun
Acknowledging the person is gone, fate decided (repeated)
