Lyric

Streetlight flickers

Engine turns

I guess some lessons

Have to burn

I kept waiting for a perfect sign

Green light, right place, perfect time

Somebody saying, “This one’s safe”

Like life was something you could calculate

I wore the bruises underneath

Learned which promises not to keep

Every wrong road got me here

Funny how the view gets clear

Maybe I’m scared

Maybe that’s fine

Fear doesn’t get

To pick my life

There’s no safe way home

So I’m taking the long way

Headlights cutting through

Everything I couldn’t say

No safe way home

No guarantee I’ll get it right

But I’d rather lose my way

Than disappear inside somebody else’s life

Let the road unfold

I don’t need to know

There’s no safe way home

And I’m going anyway

Go

Go

Don’t wait for me

Go

Go

I wanna see

I kissed trouble, called it fate

Stayed too long and left too late

Loved somebody I couldn’t save

Let somebody love the mask I made

I’ve been cruel, I’ve been kind

I’ve left better versions of me behind

Maybe growing up is just

Learning which mistakes to trust

Maybe I’m wrong

Maybe I’ll fall

I’d rather choose

Than not choose at all

There’s no safe way home

So I’m taking the long way

Headlights cutting through

Everything I couldn’t say

No safe way home

No guarantee I’ll get it right

But I’d rather lose my way

Than disappear inside somebody else’s life

Let the road unfold

I don’t need to know

There’s no safe way home

And I’m going anyway

No map

No hands on the wheel but mine

No voice

Telling me I’m out of time

No cage

Even if the door was gold

No safe way

Good

I don’t want safe anymore

If I could meet the girl I was

Before she learned to second-guess

I’d tell her nothing went to plan

And somehow

That’s what saved us

Every crack

Every goodbye

Every night I thought I’d ruined my life

Led me here

Still breathing

Still wanting more

There’s no safe way home

So I’ll take whatever comes

Rain against the windshield

Morning breaking with the sun

No safe way home

And finally that’s alright

I don’t need a perfect ending

I just need this life to feel like mine

Let the whole road unfold

Let me change, let me grow

There’s no safe way home

There’s just the one I chose

No chains

No borrowed name

No perfect road

No one to blame

If I get lost

I’ll still be mine

That’s enough

This time

No safe way home

Good
