Midnight Pulse 2 (version 2)

Verse

Engine hum where the street ends

Cold coffee in an empty tin

Blinker flash like a heartbeat

Tail lights flickering thin

Fogged windshield turning gold

Shadows stretch on the wall

Every speed I ever knew

Still can't outrun this fall

Pre-Chorus

So slow down, let it rise

Feel it climb right to my eyes

Keep your hands where they are

Don't go breaking through the dark

Chorus

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Faster than my own heartbeat

Slower than I'd like it to be

Every mile that goes by

Brought a little bit of light

Into the darkest corners

I'm still here tonight

Verse

Radio crackling static low

Ghosts in headlights on the road

Gravel crunch beneath my feet

Cold air shaking where it meets

Tailpipe rattle, engine hum

Every mile I've ever run

Fog rolls in, then pulls away

Same view that I'd rather not stay

Pre-Chorus

So slow down, let it rise

Feel it climb right to my eyes

Keep your hands where they are

Don't go breaking through the dark

Chorus

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Faster than my own heartbeat

Slower than I'd like it to be

Every mile that goes by

Brought a little bit of light

Into the darkest corners

I'm still here tonight

Bridge

Maybe that's the only speed

Where time is just a hum in my head

No goal but where we land

Just the two of us, standing there with hands

Chorus

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Midnight pulse, it won't let me go

Faster than my own heartbeat

Slower than I'd like it to be

Every mile that goes by

Brought a little bit of light

Into the darkest corners

I'm still here tonight
