Headlights

(album: Maybe It's Just Me - 2023)

I met a devil and they laid me down
Made a promise not to hold me back
Couldn't see it when they turned around
Everything was turning black

Speeding fast down an open road
I can feel you underneath my skin
Now you're smiling as I lose control
Oh lord what a mess I'm in

I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm Running to the headlights
Hoping I can find a way, I can find a way
I'm Running straight ahead and

I wish I never opened the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
Running to the headlights

The bitter taste of a sweet escape
Only left me wanting more and more
My delusions and my mistakes
Don't know what I came here for

I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm Running to the headlights
Hoping I can find a way, I can find a way
I'm Running straight ahead and

I wish I never opened the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm Running to the headlights

I can see your eyes when I'm here on the floor
Don't wanna see them anymore
I won't let you by when you knock at the door
I know what you came here for

I'm hoping for a better day, for a better day
I'm hoping for a better day, for a better day

I'm running straight ahead and
I wish I could unravel it all
Every little second that you made me crawl
I'm not sitting waiting
For you to show me love anymore

I'm running straight ahead and
I wish I never opened the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day

I'm running straight ahead and
I wish I never opened the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day
For a better day, I'm running for a better day
For a better day
Running to the headlights
