Lyrics
I replay what never was
Like silence carved into applause
A daydream set to minor keys
Where you were real and chose me
Each thought's a loop I can't unwind
You're always almost mine in mind
I chase the echo of your name
But all I hold is static rain
I keep driving midnight in reverse
Back to the moment it should've worked
Your love, a ghost behind the glass
Too close to hold, too far to pass
Hope flickers like a neon lie
I breathe you in, but you don't arrive
Still trapped inside this endless verse
Alone, in midnight in reverse
I built a world where we begin
Where every no is born again
A parallel we'll never reach
But I still bleed in every speech
I watch the future burn to gray
Each heartbeat staggers, out of place
I run through clocks that never turn
Still waiting for the tide to learn
I keep driving midnight in reverse
Back to the moment it should've worked
Your love, a ghost behind the glass
Too close to hold, too far to pass
Hope flickers like a neon lie
I breathe you in, but you don't arrive
Still trapped inside this endless verse
Alone, in midnight in reverse
If you had loved me, would it stay?
Would stars have opened, cleared the haze?
But fate's a track I can't reroute
And love, it fades without a sound
Still I'm driving midnight in reverse
Tearing through dreams that only hurt
The sky won't shift, the song won't end
I break, pretending you might bend
My heart still runs without a cause
Still counting what we never was
But even pain begins to blur
In this midnight in reverse
