This song feels like being stabbed in the heart

Lyrics 

I run the lights with the night in my veins,
Every exit looks the same.
Whiskey ghosts keep calling my name—
A little warmth, a losing game.
I sign my soul with invisible ink,
On every mile I overthink.
If time’s a bank, I’m in the red—
Paying interest with regret.


Hands on the wheel, eyes on the line,
Trading tomorrow for a moment in time.


Can you borrow from the future?
Can you spend what you can’t find?
Put a lien on the sunrise,
Buy a second off the night?
If we charge it to the starlight,
Will the dawn come to collect?
Can you borrow from the future—
Or does the future call in debt?


Cards like razors, dice like bones,
Chasing thunder through unknowns.
Every scar is a ledger note,
Every promise a sinking boat.
I kiss the spark, I miss the burn,
I swear I’ll pay it back in turn.
But clocks don’t take apologies—
Only principal and fees.


Foot to the floor, truth in the brights,
Trading forever for a flicker of light.




Tick—like a judge with a gavel of steel.
Tock—every breath is a closing deal.
Name on the dotted line,
Blood for the bottom line.
“Due upon waking,” the contract reads—
I sign it shaking, I sign in need.




…If we charge it to the starlight,
Will the dawn come to collect?
I kept living on a promise—
Now the future calls in debt.


Future on credit… balance in red…
Lights in the mirror… up ahead.
