About the song
“Headlights” by Alok, Alan Walker, and KIDDO is about living in the moment and chasing freedom without fear. The lyrics talk about using every heartbeat and not waiting for tomorrow, with “headlights” as a symbol of excitement and the rush of diving into the unknown.
The verses show a taste of the good life and a refusal to let it go. With the line about using all nine lives, the song carries a playful spirit, while also showing a push to face risks without fear and enjoy everything to the fullest.
The chorus repeats the pull of being “blinded by headlights,” mixing thrill, passion, and danger. It celebrates living boldly, giving in to the rush, and shining without hesitation.
Lyrics
Oh, oh, I’m gonna use every heartbeat
Oh, oh, today not tomorrow
Oh, oh, I’m gonna disobey
Oh, oh, far from the shallows
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Blinded by, blinded by headlights
Running in, running in headlights
Light me up, light me up, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Blinded by, blinded by headlights
Running in, running in headlights
Light me up, light me up, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Oh, oh, I got a taste of the good life
Oh, oh, I’m never letting go
Oh I’m a cat, gotta use all my nine lives
Whoa-oh, I’m gonna do it all
And oh, I’m tipping on the edge
And oh, I don’t wanna be scared
And oh, don’t you pull a breath
And oh, just take me all the way
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Blinded by, blinded by headlights
Running in, running in headlights
Light me up, light me up, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Blinded by, blinded by headlights
Running in, running in headlights
Light me up, light me up, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Baby, I’m all about headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
Headlights, headlights, headlights
(Oh, oh, I got a taste of the good life
Oh, oh, I’m never letting go)
