Broken Men Drive Far — Dark Country Music

Описание: Broken Men Drive Far is a dark country song about distance as survival.

It’s about men who don’t know how to stay — only how to keep going.
Not running.
Not chasing.
Just putting miles between themselves and what broke them.

Some people heal by talking.
Broken men drive far.

Part of the album “Blood on the Mile” by Redemption Roads.

Perfect for long drives, solitude, reflection and cinematic western moods.

Lyric: Broken Drive Far

Broken men drive far
Maps in the glovebox
Still lost in their heads
Gas station coffee
Plastic saints swinging from rearview threads
Phone face down
Unread names they won’t call back
Backroads and backtracks
Both of them running in the same old ruts

Broken men drive far
Chasing some truth
Leaving behind what they couldn’t undo
Tail lights fade
But the past holds on
Different town
Same ghost
Same song
Broken men drive far
Chasing some truth

Motel ice machine
Buzzing like all the could-have-been fights
Folded note in the wallet
Her last words creased in permanent lines
Half-hearted smile
To the clerk asking “Long way from home?”
He just shrugs
Buys gum
Says
“I’m just going where the road goes”

He counts the exits like chances
That slipped through his careless hands
[low vocal register] Prays to a stranger sky
For a version of him that still stands
[slow build] But every mile marker
Is another way of saying “too late”
He turns the volume up
Trying to drown his own name
