Intro
City lights bleed through the windshield slow Same route we always took, same radio Red light ahead, I ease on the brake One year gone, but it still feels like today
Verse 1
Cruising past the corner store at midnight Neon sign flickering, same red glow I like Passenger seat empty, coffee going cold Thinking 'bout the way you used to hold the road Stoplight turns crimson, I tap the wheel slow Remember laughing when we missed the green glow Spilled soda on the dash last summer drive Stained the leather red, still can't get it right
Pre-chorus
Something in the mirror catching every flash Same color every corner, every streetlight cast Heart doing that stutter I can't explain Feels like yesterday but the calendar changed
Chorus
Red lights in plain sight, but I can't see the fight Same road, same night, hiding what you did right Neon bleeding red on the hood like a sign Spilled drink on the seat, just like that time Plain sight, plain sight, I'm still driving blind Red in plain sight, keeping me alive
Verse 2
Radio playing that song you swore was ours Bassline sliding low like the 808 scars Red taillights ahead, matching the brake lights Flash in my memory, same as that last night You said you were tired, said we needed space I laughed it off, kept the wheel straight on the race Red cup in your hand, you took one last sip Left it rolling on the floor when you made the flip
Pre-chorus
Something in the mirror catching every flash Same color every corner, every streetlight cast Heart doing that stutter I can't explain Feels like yesterday but the calendar changed
Chorus
Red lights in plain sight, but I can't see the fight Same road, same night, hiding what you did right Neon bleeding red on the hood like a sign Spilled drink on the seat, just like that time Plain sight, plain sight, I'm still driving blind Red in plain sight, keeping me alive
Verse 3
City keeps spinning, same blocks, same pain Billboards screaming deals in that crimson stain Everybody rushing past with their own red lights Nobody knows the war I'm fighting inside Red cross on the corner where the sirens scream Red tape on the scene from that one bad dream Everybody's blind to the truth in the glow I'm the only one who really knows
Bridge
Wait... that wasn't soda on the leather that night That was your blood when you swung with all your might Red everywhere, plain sight, I just couldn't see You weren't tired, you were leaving me
Verse 4
Red light camera caught the whole damn scene Red eyes in the mirror staring back at me Red cup shattered, red stain on the floor Red words you screamed before you walked out the door Red taillights fading in the rearview glass Red heart breaking slow, never meant to last Red neon sign still buzzing in my brain Red truth in plain sight driving me insane
Verse 5
Now I see the pattern, every red I pass Every stoplight screaming what I tried to mask I'm not missing you, I'm reliving the crash Red in plain sight, finally breaking the past City lights still bleed but the color's changed Red was the warning I finally named Plain sight, plain sight, I see it all now Red in plain sight, I'm turning around
Chorus
Red lights in plain sight, now I see the fight Same road, same night, but I'm choosing the light Neon bleeding red but I break the sign Spilled drink on the seat, I let it dry this time Plain sight, plain sight, I'm no longer blind Red in plain sight, I'm leaving it behind
Outro
City lights fade in the rearview slow Same route but different, letting the red go One year gone, finally free from the glow Red in plain sight... but I'm letting it go
Inside the recording
City lights bleed through the windshield slow Same route we always took, same radio
Something in the mirror catching every flash Same color every corner, every streetlight cast
City lights fade in the rearview slow Same route but different, letting the red go
