Outrun the Rust

[Intro]
[Verse]
Grab the keys and broken gear
Nothing left for us to fear
Crumpled flyers on the dash
Turning memories into ash
This town is a graveyard shift
Give the engine one last lift
We're cutting ties and moving fast
Leave the ghosts inside the past
[Pre-Chorus]
Gas tank low but spirit high
Kiss the picket fences goodbye
No more waiting for a sign
Cross the county border line
[Chorus]
Kick up the dust, leave it all behind
Out of sight and out of mind
In a beat-up van with a busted amp
Glowing like a neon lamp
We’re screaming at the open road
Dropping every heavy load
Running wild, running free
Finally who we’re meant to be
[Post-Chorus]
Outrun the rust (Whoa-oh)
In us we trust (Whoa-oh)
[Verse]
Neon signs are blurring green
Living like a movie scene
Pick-slapped bass against the floor
I don’t want to hear no more
About the jobs we should have kept
While the rest of the world just slept
Static on the radio dial
Driving for another mile
[Pre-Chorus]
Shadows stretch across the plains
Breaking all the rusty chains
No more waiting for a sign
Cross the county border line
[Chorus]
Kick up the dust, leave it all behind
Out of sight and out of mind
In a beat-up van with a busted amp
Glowing like a neon lamp
We’re screaming at the open road
Dropping every heavy load
Running wild, running free
Finally who we’re meant to be
[Bridge]
Maybe we’ll crash, maybe we’ll burn
But there’s no point in a U-turn
The rearview mirror’s full of ghosts
Of the things we hated the most
Bittersweet and beautiful
Breaking every single rule
One more gear, one more spark
Tearing through the quiet dark
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Kick up the dust, leave it all behind
Out of sight and out of mind
In a beat-up van with a busted amp
Glowing like a neon lamp
We’re screaming at the open road
Dropping every heavy load
Running wild, running free
Finally who we’re meant to be
[Post-Chorus]
Outrun the rust (Whoa-oh)
In us we trust (Whoa-oh)
Outrun the rust (Whoa-oh)
Watch us turn to stardust
[Outro]
