Midnight in Reverse is a driving alt-rock track that captures the tension between forward motion and emotional stillness. Lyrically, it’s rooted in reminiscence—the kind that pulls you back to moments that feel vivid, unfinished, and hauntingly familiar. The verses tell small, cinematic stories: night drives, cigarette breaks, old maps, and fading names. But it's not about going back—it's about confronting the pull of a past that no longer exists.
