Lyrics

11 p.m, windows down, city lights bleeding Nobody knows where I'm headed, not even me
I love you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Lambo sittin' low on the 401, I'm just cruisin
Got your number saved, but I know better than to use it
Used to call you every night just to hear your voice through static
Now I got this city hummin' and it feels more like magic, for real
Toe rolls lit up orange like the last time that you left me
Standin' in the driveway, why you said I never get it
I get it now, I get it more than you could ever know
You feel me
But knowin' comes too late, yeah, that's the way the story goes
Rain slicked asphalt, streetlights makin' halos
Every exit ramps a memory I'm tryin' not to follow
Downtown towers starin' at me like they know my name
See me pull up to this city broken, come back just the same
Night drive, no destination
Seein' all the things I never said out loud
Night drive, somewhere in the silence
I found out who I am without the crowd
Text from people who just want me when the season's good, you know
I delete them in the tunnel like I always said I would
Got a penthouse full of people who don't know my middle name
Funny how you can be everywhere and still feel alone the same
Therapy on Tuesday, she told about the pattern
How I pull away before it hurts, she said that's what matters
Self-sabotage wrapped up in a mirror in a paddock
Runnin' from the love I needed, callin' that a habit
Skyline doin' somethin' to me, got me feelin' grateful
Twenty-three, I said I'd make it
Thirty-three, I made it, but the version of me makin
It still carries all that weight, though
Night drives taught me more than any conversation ever stated
Night drive, no destination
Seein' all the things I never said out loud
Night drive, somewhere in the silence
I found out who I am without the crowd
You ever just drive and not think about anyone
Not your mom, not the ops, not the ones who said you come undone
Just the engine and the road and the smell of the rain comin
Realize you been survivin' so long you forgot what you were runnin' from
I've been runnin' since the north end
Since the hallways, since the benches
Since the nights my phone's quiet and I learned to live with distance
Ain't no album gonna fix that, ain't no plaque upon the wall
But this drive feels like the closest thing to peace, I've had it all
Pull up to the lake, cut the engine, let it breathe
All these years of provin' somethin, wonder what I really need
Not the praise, not the features, not the number ones or places
Just the person who still sees me underneath the famous faces
Scrollin' through old photos like I'm lookin' for an answer
20-year-old me will look at now and say, you made it, man
But 20-year-old me ain't know the cost of every candle
Live for people who you lost while you were learnin' how to handle
All the noise and all the business and the lawyers and the strangers
Everybody around you eatin, but the loneliness don't change much, I don't
So I drive, yeah, I drive, yeah, I drive until the city is quiet
And I find something close to honest
In the headlights, in the silence
No destination, just me and all the things I never said out loud
Somewhere in the silence
I found out who I am without the crowd
You already know, just drive
