Midnight In The Cut

Moon low

Car slow

Mask on

Eyes cold (yeah)

Cig burn in the dash, ash snow on my jeans

Rearview full of teeth, I don’t know what it means

House dark on the hill, one light in the back

Grin wide like a split, zip tie in the pack

Talk sweet on the phone, in the flesh I’m a void

Every promise I made, every word I destroyed

Name written in a book, red drip through the page

Every letter a cut, every chapter a grave (grave)

Midnight in the cut, hear your heart beat jump

Every step that you take, I’m a shadow in the trunk

You can run, you can pray, but you still in my reach

Got your fear on a chain, drag it straight through the street

Midnight in the cut, see the porch light blink

Every thought that you hide, I can hear what you think

You can scream, you can bleed, but you still finna see

Every nightmare you had came lookin’ like me (like me)

Door cracked, I slip in, floor creak to the hum

Family photo on the wall, scratch out till it’s numb

Fridge hum, clock tick, same song every night

You asleep on the couch, I been parked at the light

Gold fang when I laugh, smell bleach in the air

Clean crime, dirty soul, leave one empty chair

Your phone on the table, light up, go dim

Whole feed full of friends, not one knows him (nah)

Midnight in the cut, hear your heart beat jump

Every step that you take, I’m a shadow in the trunk

You can run, you can pray, but you still in my reach

Got your fear on a chain, drag it straight through the street

Midnight in the cut, see the porch light blink

Every thought that you hide, I can hear what you think

You can scream, you can bleed, but you still finna see

Every nightmare you had came lookin’ like me (like me)
