Concrete Loop Forever (Version 2)

Verse

Exit twelve, exit nine

Same white line, same design

Gantry glows, engine drones

Tail lights bleed on the stones

Mile marker counts don't move

Same overpass, same groove

Radio hiss, static hum

Wheels keep turning, going numb

Pre-Chorus

Tell me where the off-ramp waits

Tell me if I passed the gate

Tell me if the signs are real

Or just the shape of how I feel

Chorus

Concrete loop forever

No exit, no end

Concrete loop forever

Round the bend again

Verse

Barrier down, barrier up

Same toll booth, same cup

Steam rises off the hood

Nothing moves the way it should

Headlights strobe the underpass

Counting cars I never pass

Speedometer stuck on grey

Clock resets to yesterday

Pre-Chorus

Tell me where the off-ramp waits

Tell me if I passed the gate

Tell me if the signs are real

Or just the shape of how I feel

Chorus

Concrete loop forever

No exit, no end

Concrete loop forever

Round the bend again

Bridge

I take the exit

It curves back in

Same broken meter

Same discipline

No new road

No way to spend

Chorus

Concrete loop forever

No exit, no end

Concrete loop forever

Round the bend again
