Frozen in the glow (version 2)

Verse 1

Gravel road, twenty miles from the city

Two AM, radio quiet and low

Dashboard amber, washing your shoulder

Cold night air through the crack in the glass

Engine humming deep in the floorboards

Every breath making minutes move slow

Pre-Chorus

Are we waiting

Are we staying

High beams white against the dust

Say you feel it, say it's us

Chorus

Static in the headlights

Frozen in the glow

Static in the headlights

Nowhere else to go

You lean across the console

Shadow on the dash

Static in the headlights

Caught inside the flash

Verse 2

Fingers trace the seam on the leather

Silver ring tapping time to the beat

Log drum shakes the mirrors outside us

Mist rolling up from the edge of the street

You don't blink, and you don't look away now

Turn the key off and let down the heat

Pre-Chorus

Are we waiting

Are we staying

High beams white against the dust

Say you feel it, say it's us

Chorus

Static in the headlights

Frozen in the glow

Static in the headlights

Nowhere else to go

You lean across the console

Shadow on the dash

Static in the headlights

Caught inside the flash

Bridge

No road behind us

No signs ahead

Just the bassline trembling

And the words unsaid

Pull me close, don't break the beam

Falling faster than it seems

Chorus

Static in the headlights

Frozen in the glow

Static in the headlights

Nowhere else to go

You lean across the console

Shadow on the dash

Static in the headlights

Caught inside the flash
