Until the Sun Came Up

Your song lyrics

Until the Sun Came Up

[Verse]
Fluorescent lights were humming in my brain
Counting down the hours, counting up the strain
A two-week notice written on a napkin stained
With stale black coffee and twenty years of pain
I walked right past the manager and didn't look back
Left the ID badge lying on the plastic rack
My boots hit the pavement, the air tasted sweet
Hear the engine roaring underneath my feet

[Chorus]
I’m choosing myself, pedal to the floor
I’m never walking back through that office door
Let the tires scream, let the highway rise
I’m trading dead weight for the morning skies
No regrets, yeah, the ghosts are gone
Just open road and a power chord dawn

[Verse]
The dashboard clock said midnight when I hit the state line
Rolling down the windows, man, I'm feeling fine
Static on the radio, but I found a rock and roll station
Playing loud enough to start a brand new generation
My knuckles turned white, holding onto the wheel
For the very first time, I remember how to feel
No more punching clocks, no more corporate lies
Just freedom burning right before my eyes

[Chorus]
I’m choosing myself, pedal to the floor
I’m never walking back through that office door
Let the tires scream, let the highway rise
I’m trading dead weight for the morning skies
No regrets, yeah, the ghosts are gone
Just open road and a power chord dawn

[Bridge]
The east is turning golden through the haze
Goodbye to the cage and the numbered days
Every mile marker is a victory sign
This life is nobody's property, it’s mine!

[Chorus]
I’m choosing myself, pedal to the floor
I’m never walking back through that office door
Let the tires scream, let the highway rise
I’m trading dead weight for the morning skies
No regrets, yeah, the ghosts are gone
Just open road and a power chord dawn
