Red Lights Fading
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Red lights glow soft on the straps where you're resting
Wrapped up so warm while the dark keeps requesting
Nothing but stillness, no reason to fear
Only the hum of the engine so near

[Pre-chorus]
Every small breath that you take feels like honour
Sleep is the shore and I'm rowing you on it
So let your eyes close as we drift into slumber

[Chorus]
Connor, the night has you safe in its keeping
Somewhere ahead is a morning worth reaching
Connor, you rest and the world turns so slowly
Nothing can touch you, you're held, you are holy

[Verse 2]
Windows are misted, the roads have gone quiet
Your small hands are still after all of the riot
Warmth wraps around you like leather grown kind
Sleep is the gentlest road left to find

[Bridge]
Hush now, the tail lights are painting you red
Softly, so softly, they glow overhead
Nothing to carry, no reason to roam

[Chorus]
Connor, the night has you safe in its keeping
Somewhere ahead is a morning worth reaching
Connor, you rest and the world turns so slowly
Nothing can touch you, you're held, you are holy

[Outro]
Rest now, the red light has faded to grey
Sleep is the whole of the way home tonight
