Dirty in the Rearview-alt

Rearview shaking. Don’t look back.

Streetlights smear across the glass, Your name burning in the dash. Engine loud, heartbeat louder, Every mile tastes like gunpowder.

No clean slate in this town, No slow way to turn around. You don’t ride with me for peace, You ride till the sirens decrease.

Hands tight on the wheel, You don’t ask how it feels. You don’t need the future clear — You just want it right here.

You don’t sit that close to chaos If you want it calm

Dirty in the rearview, Nothing left behind. If we’re running, we’re running Past the line. Dirty in the rearview, Smoke in our wake. If it breaks tonight — Let it break.

They said I leave marks on maps, You said maps don’t bring you back. They said I don’t slow for love, You said love don’t need that.

No church bells, no clean vows, Just breath in the here and now. Your laugh cuts through the noise, Like you chose this choice.

You don’t blink when I push the speed, You don’t talk about what we need. You don’t ask if we’ll survive — You ask if we’re alive.

You don’t grip that hard If you plan to bail

Dirty in the rearview, Headlights blur the truth. If we fall, we fall With proof. Dirty in the rearview, No saints inside. If we’re burning through — We ride.

Don’t check the mirror. It’s gone.

Dirty in the rearview, No clean goodbye. If the past wants blood — Let it try. Dirty in the rearview, No slowing down. If this ends tonight — We don’t turn around.
