Riding into morning gold (Version 2)

Verse

Three a.m., the whole block's asleep

Tires screech where the amber streets creep

Pulled up hard past the last open bar

Engine roars louder than I can scar

Grip the wheel till my palms go numb

Bass from speakers bleeding through the shut window glass

Every stoplight turning green at once, we dash

My name's written in smoke behind the rear tires spin

Nobody home but me and what this engine gives

Sirens fade like they never showed their face

Pre-Chorus

Doors swing wide, the night still breathes

Can you feel it climbing up through every seat?

Sun starts bleeding red into the sky

Chorus

Riding into morning gold

Blood and chrome on a road gone cold

Nothing left but speed and the glow

This is how we let go of what we know

Verse

Last bottle rolls down a sidewalk crack

Engine light's flashing, I don't feel it back

Tires cut through fog like a hot blade through rain

Every car that passes thinks I'm going insane

Police lights flicker, dim then disappear

Nobody chases when they hear the way we tear

Neon dies one color at a time

I keep driving till the whole block turns mine

Pre-Chorus

Doors swing wide, the night still breathes

Can you feel it climbing up through every seat?

Sun starts bleeding red into the sky

Chorus

Riding into morning gold

Blood and chrome on a road gone cold

Nothing left but speed and the glow

This is how we let go of what we know

Bridge

Some nights are just for burning rubber fast

No tomorrow to answer for this past

Tires smoke where the sun turns orange now

Let it burn before the whole world wakes up loud

Chorus

Riding into morning gold

Blood and chrome on a road gone cold

Nothing left but speed and the glow

This is how we let go of what we know
