[Verse 1]
This towns about a dream thats stacked on a shelf
People shrink to please everyone else
There’s a riot in my chest—not loud, just sure
Like a beat that won’t stop, a pulse with no cure
They call it chaos, they call it wild
Heck I’m choosing to be alive for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
I could stay one more night, but ill forget how to breathe
So I’m packin’ my hope in the shotgun seat
[Chorus]
Better get to gettin’—just where is unclear
Chasin’ something somewhere, shiftin’ up gears
When the rubber hits the road, she’s full throttle
Runnin’ on dreams and a half-filled bottle
She don’t know the way, but she’s done standin’ still
Bringin’ back sanity, chasing the thrill
[Verse 2]
Theres chaos in her chest that she can’t quiet
Dare her to back down - oh she’ll start a riot
She’s not runnin’ from trouble, not tryin’ to win
She’s tired of spinnin’ the wheels yet again
This town’s got a habit of closin’ in tight
Tells you to settle and smile polite
If she don’t leave now, she’ll expire in place
No hard fast rules and no empty space
[Chorus]
Better get to gettin’—just where is unclear
Chasin’ something somewhere, shiftin’ up gears
When the rubber hits the road, she’s full throttle
Runnin’ on dreams and a half-filled bottle
She don’t know the way, but she’s done standin’ still
Bringin’ back sanity, chasing the thrill
[Bridge]
She’s not a wreck to clean and claim
Not your soft-spoken, play-it-safe shame
And if she breaks down, she’ll find her way
A misfit toy, ohhhh she likes it that way
(Chorus)
So better get to gettin’—no turnin’ around
This girl’s got steel, and she’s highway-bound
When the rubber hits the road, she comes alive
With nothing to prove and no nine-to-five
Just runnin’ on dreams and a half-filled bottle
Bringin’ back sanity, full-throttle
