Burning Inside (versie 2)

Verse

Chrome on the dashboard catching red light

Engine hums like it's reading my mind

Hands on the wheel but I'm not driving yet

Static on my skin where the speakers hit

Your name is burning on the traffic sign

Every mile is a letter I write

Dashboard lights blur into one long line

Speed and silence start to feel right

Pre-Chorus

Do I slow down before it's too late?

One more minute feels like an hour of waiting

Windows down but my heart's locked in place

This whole city is running on borrowed time

Chorus

I'm burning inside a neon mile

Every stoplight's a countdown to you

Speed limit don't feel real, I ignore it tonight

Burning inside, burning inside this fire and this night

Verse 2

Radio crackles static, then your voice

Static turns to rhythm, breaks the noise

Skyscrapers blur into one long blade

Nothing but speed between me and my shade

Headlights cut through fog like a second sun

Streetlights blink in time with what we've done

RPMs higher than my heart can climb

Engine's louder than I feel at all this time

Pre-Chorus

Do I slow down before it's too late?

One more minute feels like an hour of waiting

Windows down but my heart's locked in place

This whole city is running on borrowed time

Chorus

I'm burning inside a neon mile

Every stoplight's a countdown to you

Speed limit don't feel real, I ignore it tonight

Burning inside, burning inside this fire and this night

Bridge

Maybe I was built for this kind of speed

Maybe slowing down would break the wheel

Static on my skin, but it feels like home

This whole highway is where I belong

Chorus

I'm burning inside a neon mile

Every stoplight's a countdown to you

Speed limit don't feel real, I ignore it tonight

Burning inside, burning inside this fire and this night
