Northbound

Verse

Snow turns to silver on the rail

Packed up everything we had to sail

Bass hums low through my frozen spine

Leaving home but I'm not losing time

Pre-Chorus

Every mile feels like a door left open

Nothing here can stop me from what's spoken

Let it pull me closer to where I have to be

Chorus

I'm northbound, wind in the teeth tonight

Northbound on an engine that burns white

Nothing ahead but empty sky and light

Northbound till sunrise cuts through my fight

Verse

Ice road stretches out like a frozen vein

Headlights cutting circles through the grey rain

Engine's roaring where the dark gets thin

Counting down hours until we're in again

Pre-Chorus

Every mile feels like a door left open

Nothing here can stop me from what's spoken

Let it pull me closer to where I have to be

Chorus

I'm northbound, wind in the teeth tonight

Northbound on an engine that burns white

Nothing ahead but empty sky and light

Northbound till sunrise cuts through my fight

Bridge

Maybe this road was never mine to hold

Every ending's just another name for gold

The dark is a door I gotta step through

This is how the brave ones come alive in you

I won't be sorry, I won't turn around

Not when every bone and muscle has sound

Outro

Northbound till sunrise cuts through my fight

Northbound on an engine that burns white
