Paregoric - Wired for the Ride (Hard Hitting, You're Not Invincible 80’s Hair Metal, Trans-am)

Wired for the Ride is a high-octane anthem that captures the reckless energy of youth, living life at full speed without a second thought. The song follows a young man who believes he’s invincible, his adrenaline-fueled existence defined by the roar of his car’s engine and the thrill of the open road. The imagery is vibrant—his beloved Trans Am, the grinding gears, the tires burning with every reckless turn—and it all builds toward an inevitable, tragic end. The protagonist’s defiance and confidence in his ability to cheat fate are palpable, yet the song’s heart-breaking reality shines through as he learns—too late—that nothing can outrun the consequences of living too fast.

With a punchy guitar riff and lyrics brimming with fast-paced imagery, Wired for the Ride tells the story of that one last ride—the final thrill that turns deadly in the blink of an eye. It’s an exploration of youth, danger, and mortality, as the protagonist’s reckless abandon eventually costs him everything. The thrill of the ride is replaced by the cold silence of death, a sharp, sorrowful lesson that echoes long after the engine has died down.

The track fuses the raw intensity of hair metal with a poignant message, capturing the duality of living life in the fast lane: a burst of brilliance and joy, but one that’s fleeting and often destructive. The chorus is a celebration of youth’s invincibility, while the haunting outro serves as a solemn reminder that time waits for no one.
