lyrics

For the Rush

Highway raceway
Eighty in a fast back mustang
Windows down drown the sound of the radio up
Quick stop pit stop
Grab a twelve and jump in don’t stop
Stupid kids raisin hell till the sun comes up

Lookin back on life and what we had

For all we knew it was our time
liberty was a wide line
We didn’t think of the pain that was headed for us
We were living for the rush

Late night bonfire
Just beyond the busted barbwire
Take my hand and I show you how to get in
Moon lit soft kiss baby you should know I’ll miss this
And if I had the chance I’d do it again

Lookin back on life and what we had

For all we knew it was our time
liberty was a wide line
We din’t think of the pain that was headed for us
We were living for the rush

But I took that car and I drove it straight
I crossed that line and I told you to wait
Cause I’m coming back
I know I’m coming back
It’s been three years since you moved on
Fire pits are flooded and the flame is gone
But I’m coming back
I’m always coming back

Looking back on life and what we had

For all we knew it was our time
liberty was a wide line
We didn’t think of the pain that was headed for us
We were living for the rush
We were living for the rush
We were living for the rush
