Gray Light Quiet

The heater breathes, then fades away

Gray light leaks across the glass

Nobody talks, just letting go Of what we couldn’t make outlast (oh)

My hands still smell like steering wheel And all our laughs turned

paper-thin But there’s a line beyond the dark Where we can start

again (yeah)

When the first gray light hits the windshield

We don’t need words to know If the night took more than

it gave us We’re still here—so we go

Oh, we go (oh-oh)

(oh-oh) We’re still here—so we go (oh)

Street signs blur into our eyes Like all the plans we didn’t

keep Your head leans close against the door And I just let

the silence speak (ahhhh)

If we can’t fix what broke back there We can still choose

what happens next

The road is finally losing black And breathing in our chest (yeah)

When the first gray light hits the windshield We don’t need words

to know

If the night took more than it gave us We’re still here—so

we go

Oh, we go (oh-oh)

We watch the sky turn into something new And for a second,

I forgive the miles If home is just a direction we agree

on

Let’s take it

slow—just for a while (ooh)

When the first gray light hits the windshield We don’t need words

to know

If the night took more than it gave us We’re still here—so

we go Oh, we go (oh-oh)
