Lyrics

[Intro]
We stall in the silence
Grinding teeth, no traction left
Downshifted… souls

[Verse 1]
I’m stuck in neutral, heart on redline
Burning through days like a flatlined timeline
Static in my head, can’t hear the truth
Every promise rusted, every lie bulletproof

Hands on the wheel but the road feels fake
Rearview full of mistakes I can’t overtake
I scream at the mirrors, they don’t respond
Just cracked reflections of what I’m not

[Pre-Chorus]
Every step feels heavier now
Every breath tastes like the ground

[Chorus]
We’re downshifted souls, crawling through the wreckage
Spinning our wheels in emotional wreckage
No high gear hope, just broken control
We’re alive but stalled — downshifted souls

[Verse 2]
Knuckles bleed from gripping regret
I bite my tongue but I taste the debt
They say “move on,” but they never knew
How the past keeps pulling like a deadweight noose

System overload, I’m cutting the sound
Heartbeat drops when the lights go down
I tried to outrun what I became
But the road knows my name

[Pre-Chorus]
Every mile tears me apart
Every scar’s just a map of the heart

[Chorus]
We’re downshifted souls, dragging the damage
Fueling the fire with pain and panic
No clean escape from the toll it stole
We’re alive but stalled — downshifted souls

[Bridge]
Strip the gears
Kill the noise
I’m more than fear
I’m more than void

I won’t stay frozen
I won’t decay
Even in pieces
I’ll grind my way

[Final Chorus]
We’re downshifted souls, but we’re still breathing
Still grinding sparks in the dark, still bleeding
If this is low, then I’ll carve my role
From the wreck of the road — downshifted souls

[Outro]
Stalled… but not erased
Downshifted…
Still alive
