Title: Tonight We Drive Artist: T34L Release Year: 2025 Released as: Album (Pin-Up Girl) ISRC: QT6G72575300 ASCAP: 933822524
Threw clothes in a bag, didn’t bother to fold
Kids in the back, whispering they’re cold
Heartbeat’s loud as the boots on the gravel
Tonight I ain’t letting the fear unravel
Keys in my hand and I’m shaking so hard
Praying this engine will start in the dark
I told myself, Girl, tonight is the night
Take what is yours and run for your life
It’s a midnight exit, wheels on fire
Taking my babies from the wreck of a liar
No more bruised-up days or quiet cries
No more telling them those “Mama’s fine” lies
Yeah, we’re scared, but we’re finally free
This runaway road is calling to me
Tonight we live, tonight we drive
Phone keeps buzzing, but I ain’t replying
Promises don’t mean a damn when he’s lying
Highway’s humming like a low ghost choir
Watching over us like a tireless fighter
Every mile I feel something inside of me break
But it’s the kind of break that a soul needs to make
If the engine dies, I’ll carry ’em on foot
I ain’t going back, that’s understood
It’s a midnight exit, wheels on fire
Taking my babies from the wreck of a liar
No more bruised-up days or quiet cries
No more telling them those “Mama’s fine” lies
Yeah, we’re scared, but we’re finally free
This runaway road is calling to me
Tonight we live, tonight we drive
I ain’t strong every day, but I’m strong tonight
And that’s enough to get us to the light
It’s a midnight exit, wheels on fire
Leaving behind every threat, every wire
No more bruised-up days or quiet cries
No more telling them those “Mama’s fine” lies
Yeah, we’re shaking, but we’re finally free
Freedom’s starting to look good on me
Tonight we live, tonight we drive
Tonight we drive. Keep your eyes on the road
