[Intro – soft, echoing melody, lo-fi acoustic guitar] You said, “Drive safe,” I said, “Always.” Didn’t know that’d be the last thing you’d say. ⸻ [Verse 1 – mellow rap, somber tone] Now I ride alone, speakers hum your name, Still got your hair tie looped ’round my mirror frame. Highway signs don’t hit the same, Every mile’s a flashback, pain in a new lane. That night, I swear time froze, Screamed at God, like “Why her, though?” I still see the crash when I close my eyes, But all I hear is your laugh on rewind. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – sung, layered harmonies] We had plans, we had dreams, Now it’s just me and the cold front seat… You’re gone… but I ain’t free… ⸻ [Chorus – punk rock style, gritty vocals] You were my light in a world this dark, Now I talk to the sky, screamin’ at stars. I keep you close in the things I write, But I’d trade every line just to hold you tonight. Empty seat, but your ghost don’t leave, I still reach over like you’re next to me. Crash took you, but it won’t take me— I carry your love like a melody. ⸻ [Verse 2 – rap w/ pain and buildup] Yeah, I replay that voicemail too much, Your “I love you” hits like a knockout punch. I still keep your hoodie tucked in my drawer, Smells like smoke, perfume, and the girl I adore. I drive past the spot where it all went wrong, Lay flowers down, then turn up our song. Some nights I just scream in the rain, ’Cause healing don’t mean you forget the pain. ⸻ [Bridge – soft + screaming blend] They say “move on” — But they ain’t felt this, They ain’t held love then lost it to a death kiss. Your seatbelt snapped, but you snapped my soul, Now I talk to the wind like you’re still in control. ⸻ [Final Chorus – full emotion, higher key] You were my light in a world this dark, Now I talk to the sky, screamin’ at stars. I keep you close in the things I write, But I’d burn every song just to say goodnight. Empty seat, but your ghost don’t leave, Still reach over like you’re next to me. Crash took you, but it won’t take me— I’ll love you forever, endlessly. ⸻ [Outro – acoustic fade, heartbeat sample] One last ride… One last breath… You’re the song I’ll sing until there’s nothing left.
