Windshield cracked, dashboard hums One flashbulb catches early sun Red bag rattles down the hall Guitars flash, we take it all I taped the night beneath my bed Played that bus until the wheels went dead Flashbulbs popped across the dash While empty highways grabbed me fast Punched a ticket, missed the train Kissed the tape, heard static rain Seven minutes left to spare Then I pressed it, played it there [Pre- Chrome and dust beneath my shoes Fastest way to lose the blues But I can't slow down Watch the shadows pull around Roll the tape, roll the tape Let the old days spill out I was young, I was halfway Far from home, but coming out Roll the tape, roll the tape Every chorus rings out loud I was gone, I was halfway Find me racing with the crowd Bus brakes screeched outside the cafe Waitress waved us two hours' way I taped her laugh beside the band Then paid with paper from my hand Radio static through the night Pedal iron, dashboard light Mirror caught a reckless grin Mix nineteen ninety-seven begin [Pre- Chrome and dust beneath my shoes Fastest way to lose the blues But I can't slow down Watch the shadows pull around Roll the tape, roll the tape Let the old days spill out I was young, I was halfway Far from home, but coming out Roll the tape, roll the tape Every chorus rings out loud I was gone, I was halfway Find me racing with the crowd Rooftop hum above the town Speaker popped, then blew the ground A borrowed coat against the rain Streetlamp streaked across the train I filmed the cracks inside the door Counted exits, maybe some more Every reckless thing we said Left a signal on its way [Pre- Cold white hills beneath the wheels Miles of doubt and bright reveals But I won't look back Keep my eyes upon the track Fade the frame Feel the tape begin to move Crank the dawn I have lost and found my proof Fade the frame Hear the future bleeding through Cassette hum Still says come home to you Cedar sparks beneath the wheels A borrowed voice caught what I feel Vending soda, county line Radio humming, yours and mine Every mile wore down the tape Still the chorus cleared the gate Then the sun broke wide and gold And the story turned from old [Pre- Warm white light upon the dash All those missing years flash past But I won't look back Keep my hands upon the track Roll the tape, roll the tape Let the old days spill out I was young, I was halfway Far from home, but coming out Roll the tape, roll the tape Every echo rings out loud I was scared, I was halfway But I found me in the sound Roll the tape, roll the tape Racing toward the sunrise I was lost, I was halfway Still somehow, I arrived Windscreen warm, the city fades Tape keeps turning through the grades One last frame, the morning white Hello, world, I'm still alive
