[Verse] City lights blur through the windowpane Silent streets whisper your name Heartbeat racing, but I’m holding back Words like thunder, but I stay black [Pre-Chorus] Every mile, a memory I chase But the night won’t let me break [Chorus] Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Fighting the flood that’s about to crash me Underneath the moon, I’m barely breathing Lost inside the silence, I’m still feeling Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Can’t let you see the girl who’s breaking free [Verse] Shadows folding in on my skin Echoes loud of what might’ve been Hands on the wheel, but my mind’s astray Holding on tight, but I drift away [Pre-Chorus] Every mile, a memory I chase But the night won’t let me break [Chorus] Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Fighting the flood that’s about to crash me Underneath the moon, I’m barely breathing Lost inside the silence, I’m still feeling Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Can’t let you see the girl who’s breaking free [Bridge] Maybe someday I’ll let it all go But tonight, I’m just a shadow you don’t know Silent cries, they’re my lullaby In this cab, I’m learning how to say goodbye [Chorus] Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Fighting the flood that’s about to crash me Underneath the moon, I’m barely breathing Lost inside the silence, I’m still feeling Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Can’t let you see the girl who’s breaking free [Outro] Biting back tears in a late-night taxi Holding on tight, though my heart is heavy
