Anywhere but here

You awake?

Obviously.

Wanna do something stupid?

...I'm already outside.

Let's go!

---

Midnight, headlights
Your car waiting down my street
I threw some clothes into a suitcase
Didn't even check what I would need

Mama thinks I'm sleeping
Phone's on one percent
You yell, "Where are we going?"
I say, "Anywhere but here instead!"

Gas station, cheap shades
Coffee that we shouldn't drink
You say, "What if this is crazy?"
I say, "That's the point, I think"

No reservations
No destination signs
Just pick a road and follow it
Until we leave this town behind

What if we get lost?

Then we'll find another way

What if we regret it?

Not tonight, okay?

Put your favorite song on
And let the whole world wait!

---

We could go anywhere, anywhere
Windows down, messing up our hair
Singing way too loud
Like we own this town
And we don't even care

Anywhere, anywhere
Maybe there's a whole life waiting out there
No map, no plans
Just your hand in my hand

If they ask where we've been
We'll say, "Everywhere!"

Anywhere but here!

Anywhere but here!

Oh-oh-oh!
**ANYWHERE BUT HERE!**

---

Sunrise, coastline
Bare feet running through the sand
You almost dropped your phone into the ocean

Hey! That wasn't in the plan!

We didn't have a plan!

...Fair enough.

Bad pictures, good nights
Laughing 'til we can't breathe
Funny how I needed this
More than I knew I did last week

You were tired of pretending

You were tired of it too

So maybe running from the world
Was exactly what we had to do

---

What if we run out of money?

I've got twenty-three

That's literally nothing!

You've got faith in me!

Put our favorite song on
We can worry next week!

---

We could go anywhere, anywhere
Windows down, messing up our hair
Singing way too loud
Like we own this town
And we don't even care

Anywhere, anywhere
Maybe there's a whole life waiting out there
No map, no plans
Just your hand in my hand

If they ask where we've been
We'll say, "Everywhere!"

Oh-oh-oh!
**ANYWHERE BUT HERE!**

Someday we'll have real jobs
And houses we can't leave—

You'll call me on a Tuesday
And say you've got a meeting at three—

Maybe we'll live miles apart—

Maybe everything will change—

And maybe nights like this
Will just be pictures in a frame...



Then promise me something.

Anything.

When life gets too loud...

I'll pick you up.

No questions?

No questions.

We'll fill up the tank
Turn off our phones
Pick any road
And just...

GO!

WE COULD GO ANYWHERE, ANYWHERE!
Windows down, screaming through the air
Singing way too loud
We don't need this town
Yeah, we don't even care!

Anywhere, anywhere
There's a whole damn world waiting out there!

(Keep driving, keep driving!
Don't wanna slow down tonight!)

No map, no plans—

(We'll figure it out!)

Just your hand in my hand—

(That's all that I need!)

And if everything changes
At least we had this!

Anywhere—

Anywhere—

ANYWHERE BUT HERE!

So... where are we actually going?

No idea.

Perfect.

Oh-oh-oh.

Anywhere but here.

Energetic feel-good pop-rock duet performed by TWO distinct young female vocalists about best friends escaping on a spontaneous road trip. Girl 1 has a bright, sweet pop voice; Girl 2 has a slightly deeper, raspy confident voice. Clearly alternate their lines and verses, with playful spoken interactions and call-and-response. Both voices unite in huge catchy choruses with strong two-part harmonies. Bright electric guitars, driving bass, punchy live drums, handclaps and glossy synths. Youthful, cinematic, carefree road-trip energy. Bridge starts emotional and intimate with alternating vocals, then builds dramatically before both shout “GO!” into an explosive final chorus. Final chorus features overlapping melodies, harmonies and individual ad-libs from both singers. 125–135 BPM, major key, polished upbeat pop-rock, joyful, nostalgic and infectious.
