Midnight at the Crossroads

[Verse 1]
Standing where the highways meet
Gravel crunching 'neath my feet
Headlights cutting through the dark
Every choice leaves its mark
Radio static fills the air
Whiskey bottle, empty stare

[Chorus]
Midnight at the crossroads
Which way do I go
Left leads to forgiveness
Right leads to the unknown
Midnight at the crossroads
Can't stay here alone
Gotta choose a direction
Before the sun comes home

[Verse 2]
Photograph upon the dash
Memories of love that passed
Engine running, heart stands still
Time to bend unto my will
Stars above don't give advice
Every gamble has its price

[Chorus]
Midnight at the crossroads
Which way do I go
Left leads to forgiveness
Right leads to the unknown
Midnight at the crossroads
Can't stay here alone
Gotta choose a direction
Before the sun comes home

[Bridge]
Some roads lead you back to start
Some roads tear your world apart
But standing still ain't living free
Gotta trust what's meant to be

[Final Chorus]
Midnight at the crossroads
Now I know which way to go
Straight ahead to tomorrow
Leave behind what I've outgrown
