Northbound - Red Light

2025 - Northbound Sitting at the corner, engine idling low Red light glowing, watching the traffic flow Rain taps a rhythm on the glass, a steady beat I'm counting down the seconds, waiting for the green The brake lights pulse like a heartbeat in the dark Just a moment of silence before the spark And the light breaks, and the tires scream I'm tearing through the dark like I need to bleed The city blurs, the rain flies by Nothing ahead but the open sky Yeah, the red light held me, but not for long Now I'm gone, now I'm gone The needle climbs, the engine screams Cutting through the city streams Streetlights flash in a strobe of white Carving through the heavy night The city shrinks in the rearview glass Watching all the shadows pass And the light breaks, and the tires scream I'm tearing through the dark like I need to bleed The city blurs, the rain flies by Nothing ahead but the open sky Yeah, the red light held me, but not for long Now I'm gone, now I'm gone I don't need a destination Just the speed to lose the pain Every mile is a separation From the ghost inside my brain Push the pedal, feel the rush Turn the silence into dust And the light breaks, and the tires scream I'm tearing through the dark like I need to bleed The city blurs, the rain flies by Nothing ahead but the open sky Yeah, the red light held me, but not for long Now I'm gone, now I'm gone Now I'm gone Just the road Tail lights fading Red light... gone
