(oh oh) You said keep cool when the room went red
I kept my hands where the silence bled Every small word hit
sharp and slow
I felt the floor give way below We were two sparks in
a closing frame Too proud to leave,
too tired to name So I count the beats just to hold
my place While the night leans hard
against my chest
If I let go now,
will it all come clear
If I say it plain,
will you finally hear The air gets thin when we're this close
We're alive in the wreckage,
singing right through the flames Turning all our broken moments into something
we can name If the world keeps spinning,
let it spin us into light
I want your heart beside me,
I want your heart tonight (oh oh)
We're alive, we're alive tonight Now the glass shakes under every streetlamp
turn
You wear that look like you still might burn
I read the doubt in the way you breathe Like one more
truth could undo the scene
But I came back for the part we hide The little fire
we keep inside And every step to the edge feels right When
your name hits hard in the afterglow
No more waiting under lowered eyes
No more folding every truth inside
If we're going down,
we're going bright (ah)
We're alive in the wreckage,
singing right through the flames Turning all our broken moments into something
we can name If the world keeps spinning,
let it spin us into light I want your heart beside me,
I want your heart tonight
We're alive, we're alive tonight
We're alive tonight
We're alive tonight
Hold on tight (oh oh)
