[[Verse 1]
Dust on the dash
Old thermos
Pack of smokes
Map folded in the door
Tracks fading into choke

Sun bleeding through the trees
Orange cut to rust
She watches every turn
Breath tastes like dust

[Chorus]
“I'm frightened
” she finally says
Staring out where the road just ends
“I wanna get out
I wanna get out”
He laughs low
Eyes straight ahead
“Well you're frightened
Girl
Just think of me instead
I gotta drive out of this forest by myself”
(Drive out by myself)

[Verse 2]
Sign riddled up with holes
Names someone carved in bark
Radio just hisses
As the sky falls into dark

Her hand on the door
Knuckles pale as bone
No houses
No fences
Just the engine and the unknown

[Chorus]
“I'm frightened
” she finally says
Staring out where the road just ends
“I wanna get out
I wanna get out”
He laughs low
Eyes straight ahead
“Well you're frightened
Girl
Just think of me instead
I gotta drive out of this forest by myself”
(Out of this forest by myself)

[Bridge]
Headlights catch a rabbit
Frozen in the glow
He doesn’t even slow down
Says
“Now you know
Now you know”

[Chorus]
“I'm frightened
” she finally says
Voice so small it barely threads
“I wanna get out
I wanna get out”
He laughs low
Eyes straight ahead
“Well you're frightened
Girl
Just think of me instead
I gotta drive out of this forest by myself”
(Drive out by myself)
