Built around The thrill of crossing state lines and reinventing yourself with every border, leaving pieces of your old self behind. Live Wire's voltage-cranked guitars carries the concept through pop that rewards repeat listens. "I left my doubt in Delaware my fear in Tennessee" — the kind of line that sticks in your head three days later. The mood runs triumphant, liberating, soaring. Genre showcases on Majik's aren't filler — they're proof that independent music can carry real emotional weight when the lyrics and production align.
[verse 1]
I left my doubt in Delaware my fear in Tennessee
Dropped my bad habits at the border of Kentucky
Every state line is a chance to start again
I'm collecting license plates and shedding skin
The welcome sign says now entering something new
And the version of me that crosses is a better view
[pre-chorus]
Another border another beginning
I keep losing weight and the car keeps spinning
[chorus]
State lines I cross them like I'm crossing off a list
Of everything I used to be that I won't miss
State lines a new me every time I pass
The rearview holds the old one fading fast
State lines state lines
I'm drawing my own map tonight
[verse 2]
Left my jealousy in Georgia my regret in Maine
Dropped my bitterness in Texas like a summer rain
Colorado took my sadness gave me mountain air
California said come as you are I don't care
Every border crossing lighter every tank of gas
The person driving forward isn't the one who left the past
[pre-chorus]
Another border another beginning
I keep losing weight and the car keeps spinning
[chorus]
State lines I cross them like I'm crossing off a list
Of everything I used to be that I won't miss
State lines a new me every time I pass
The rearview holds the old one fading fast
State lines state lines
I'm drawing my own map tonight
[bridge]
Fifty states fifty chances to be free
Fifty different versions of the best of me
The road is long but the road is kind
Every mile I drive I leave something behind
Something I don't need
[chorus]
State lines I cross them like I'm crossing off a list
Of everything I used to be that I won't miss
State lines a new me every time I pass
The rearview holds the old one fading fast
State lines state lines
I'm drawing my own map tonight
[outro]
Now entering the rest of my life
State lines
Keep crossing keep becoming
State lines
