Shadow on the blacktop
Stretched across the street
Can't outrun the dark parts of me
Slippery the shadows
Slither through the trees
All roads end eventually
So follow me down
Follow me down

Holy spirit on my lips
Tryna exorcize the ghost of a double shift
Baptized neon when the call comes in
Something's happening on 86
So it's back to the wilderness
To clean up some impossible mess
It's always the same shit
Spinning in blue and red and it won't stop
As the moon crests the treetops
I see blood on the blacktop
Blood on the blacktop

Tripping over my own feet
Don't know where I wanna be
I been running the numbers
And they don't add up to much
Feels so odd that I can't even
Find a place to rest
Crossed the lines and lost the reasons
Running east to west
Tryna keep the pedal down
Always on to the next town
Tallied up the wasted miles
But I can't count on a smile
One step too far over the line
Ignored the blinking brake lights
One step too far over the line
Don't think I'll swerve back in time
One step too far over the line
No other options, no way of stopping
One step too far over the line
Lean back and brace for impact

Everything will be OK
Everything will be OK
Everything will be OK
Everything will be OK
Keep it floored
Never gonna make it home by sunset
Is it so much to ask for?
Fingers drum on the dashboard
Still I feel like I'm going nowhere fast
Fiberglass jewels spread on the shoulder
Lonely residue when it's over
Hit the brakes
You think that someday I would learn my lesson
Cars for days and days and days and days and days
Looks a frozen funeral procession
My anxiety starts to smolder
(What can I do?)
I throw up in my cup holder
(I'm fucking screwed)
I can feel it
Shadows creep in
I can feel it
Shadows creep in

I've got a knot tied tight
In my stomach
And I wish it wasn't
But I can smile all right
A little vacant
But I can fake it
Cuz plastic dinosaurs are flying laps in my backseat
He's got every terror lizard memorized
Everything turned sour but I tried to keep him sweet
The only thing that's good left in my life
In the backseat
In the backseat
Watching the miles scroll by
Seemed like magic
Until this traffic
Now it feels like this Corolla's closing in on me
Feeling like I need the jaws of life
If I chose a different road, I wonder where I'd be
All my other selves I left behind
In the backseat
In the backseat
In the backseat
In the backseat
Watching the sun sink low
Paints the sky red
Like something violent is coming
Night time's coming
And he's afraid of the dark
Night time's coming
This line of cars is practically parked
Night time's coming
Moon overhead, feeling of dread
Night time's coming
Feeling like we never left

The Territories

Feeling alright
Rolling on
Feeling alright
Rolling on
Let my worries go
Float out the window
Gimme a light
We're sparking up
Maybe tonight
When it's dark enough
(I'll make my move)
Flying in a cloud
With the radio turned loud
We ain't ever going home
Make our claim the open road
Me and my best friends
Never gonna end
Won't come home again
I'm lighting up
Bound for the territories
I'm lighting up
I'm lighting up
Bound for the territories
I'm lighting up

Hopeless
It's a low miss
And I feel like I might die tonight
Everything feels sorta surreal
Claws opening wounds that won't heal
(Called out like a siren)
Monsters are real
(Like a siren in the dark)
Losing control
(Called out like a siren)
Can't reach my gun
(Like a siren in the dark)
I'm getting cold
Hopeless
It's a low miss
And I feel like I might die tonight
So it's back to the wilderness
(With my blood on the blacktop)
Never thought that it would end like this
(With my blood on the blacktop)
Praying for somebody to stop this awful mess
(With my blood on the blacktop)
Everything looks so dark
(With my blood)

Blood

Shed my pink skin
Let the night in
Everyone changes with time
Moonlight white blur
Wind in my fur
Ooh
Howl at the moon
Ooh
Howl at the moon
Ripping people outta car seats
Blood on my teeth
There's a kid standing there with a dinosaur
I go for his throat
Somebody screams
Thunder roars
Something tore through me
Ooh
Howl at the moon
Ooh
Howl at the moon
Blood
Blood on the ground
Blood from my veins
Blood pouring out
Blood
Can't save me now
It's raining blood
And I'm gonna drown

Gunsmoke stung my eyes
My hands were shaking
Wolf skull pulverized by
The shot I'd taken
Echoes of the blast
Ringing in my ears
Is the danger passed?
Are we in the clear?
Something taps my neck and I jump
But it's just a raindrop falling
Bloodstains on the moonlit blacktop
Washing away
My son takes my hand
We start walking
Past the torn up man whose gun
I used to stop it
Bloodstains on the moonlit blacktop
(Rain falls down)
Washing away
(Rain falls down)
Let the rain fall hard
Erode memories
Pothole every scar
Coming clean
Son in my left hand
The gun in my right
Not letting go of either one tonight
Bloodstains on the moonlit blacktop
(Rain falls down)
Washing away
Ghosts will haunt us
Ghosts will haunt us
Bloodstains on the moonlit blacktop
(Rain falls down)
Washing away
(Rain falls down)
Bloodstains on the moonlit blacktop
Washing away
Some bloodstains the rain can't wash off
Some never fade

Shadow on the blacktop
Sticking to our heels
It's a dark echo (a dark echo)
A scar that never heals
It follows me now
It follows me now
Oh no
Shadow on the blacktop
All our ghosts
Shadow on the blacktop
Shadows on the blacktop
Where we turned into the skid
And I'm scared of the dark like I'm still a little kid
Oh no
Oh no
Shadow on the blacktop
Shadow on the blacktop
All our ghosts are backseat drivers
All our ghosts are backseat drivers
All our ghosts are backseat drivers
All our ghosts
