500 Miles in the Night

[Intro] (Instrumental intro: Warm acoustic guitar strumming, soft piano notes, subtle k**k drum groove begins) [Verse 1] (Male Vocal: Raspy, storytelling) I packed my fears and I left that town, With a half tank heart and the windows down. Every mistake was a weight I wore, Till I dropped it all on that gravel floor. She said love ain’t meant to hurt this much, So I’m chasing freedom like a healing touch. This road don’t end, but I don’t mind, Got the sunrise waiting at the end of the line. [Pre-Chorus] (Female Vocal: Harmony Stack, Building) Let it go, let it go, let it burn away, Every broken piece gonna find its way. [Hook] (Male Lead Vocal / Female Harmony Response) (Male) I drove 500 miles in the night, (Male) Just to chase that little spark of light, (Male) Left the past in the rear-view mirror, (Male) Every mile I got a little bit nearer. (Female) Heart break, highway, let it all go, (Female) One more mile and the future starts to glow. [Drop] (EDM-Country Hybrid: Acoustic chop loop, Synth lead playing folk melody, Vocal chop "We ride" repeated) (Chant: "We ride, we ride, through the dark to the light") (Instrumental Drop) [Verse 2] (Male Vocal: Raspy, gaining strength) Maybe pain was the fuel I needed, Every scar is a story completed, I ain’t running anymore, I’m healing, With the highway singing and the tires screaming. I got a second chance in the midnight breeze, Got hope on my shoulder putting me at ease. I’m alive, I’m free, I’m ready to f***t, 500 miles in the heart of the night. [Pre-Chorus] (Female Vocal: Harmony Stack, Building) Let it go, let it go, let it burn away, Every broken piece gonna find its way. [Hook] (Male Lead Vocal / Female Harmony Response) (Male) I drove 500 miles in the night, (Male) Just to chase that little spark of light, (Male) Left the past in the rear-view mirror, (Male) Every mile I got a little bit nearer. (Female) Heart break, highway, let it all go, (Female) One more mile and the future starts to glow. [Bridge] (Duet: Male & Female Vocals intertwined) We don’t stop, we don’t break, We don’t fall from the choices we make. Every mile we grow, we don’t fade away, Every mile we leave yesterday. [Drop] (EDM-Country Hybrid: Acoustic chop loop, Synth lead playing folk melody, Vocal chop "We ride" repeated) (Chant: "We ride, we ride, through the dark to the light") (Instrumental Drop) [Final Hook] (Full Vocals: Male Lead, Female Harmony & Counter-Melody) I drove 500 miles in the night, Just to see your face in the morning light, Every road, every tear, every f***t, Led me here where the world feels right. [Outro] (Male Vocal: Fading slightly) We ride, we ride, into the morning light... (Female Vocal: Sustained harmony) 500 miles just to get this right... (Instrumental outro: Acoustic guitar strumming fades, soft piano, k**k groove slows and stops)
