Last Chance Highway

[Verse 1]

Sun’s just climbing over

That rusted county line sign

Coffee in a paper cup

Gas gauge kissing that red line

Rearview full of miles

I swore I’d never waste

Got a pocket full of almosts

Burning like a bitter taste

[Chorus]

I’m done killing time on this last chance highway

Done saying “someday” while the days run out

I’ve been letting fear hold the wheel my way

Now it’s my turn to lean in, stomp it down

If this is all I get, I’m gonna make it count

Gonna make it count

[Verse 2]

Dad’s old dog tag swinging

From the mirror by my face

He worked three jobs and Sundays

Still felt like he’d lost the race

He said “Son, regret’s a prison

Built one small choice a day”

I’ve been stacking up those bricks

Built one small choice a day”

I’ve been stacking up those bricks

I’m tearing down that wall today

[Chorus]

I’m done killing time on this last chance highway

Done saying “someday” while the days run out

I’ve been letting fear hold the wheel my way

Now it’s my turn to lean in, stomp it down

If this is all I get, I’m gonna make it count

Gonna make it count

[Bridge]

Every mile marker

Feels like a heartbeat

Every slow goodbye

Echoes in the backseat

If the good Lord calls me

Before the sun goes down

I wanna meet His eyes

Knowing I stood my ground

[Chorus]

I’m done killing time on this last chance highway

Done saying “someday” while the days run out

I’ve been letting fear hold the wheel my way

Now it’s my turn to lean in, stomp it down

If this is all I get, I’m gonna make it count

Yeah, if this is all I get, I’m gonna make it count

Gonna make it count
