Yeah…
Late nights, bright lights…
We
turn pain into gold.
{atmospheric
pads swelling} City on fire,
diamonds in the rain,
Smile on my face but I’m hiding all the pain.
She said, “Don’t leave,” but I’m chasing every dream,
Nothing’s ever really what it seems.
Windows down, let the skyline sing,
Gold around my neck but it don’t mean a thing.
Heart still cold, but the rhythm feels warm,
Made it through the pressure,
now I’m riding the storm.
{dry close-mic'd vocal} We keep dancing like tomorrow never comes,
Every scar shining brighter than the sun.
{filter sweep build}
You’re my glowing heart
in the middle of the dark,
Every time you leave,
you leave another spark.
Hands up high, let the whole world see,
You’re the only one that still believes in me.
If the night falls down,
we’ll light it up again,
Turn our broken stories into something they can sing.
You’re my glowing heart… my glowing heart.
{soaring lead synth, hands-up moment} Bass hit hard while the memories fade,
Living so fast but the moments don’t wait.
Counting these blessings instead of the cash,
Love move quick like a match to the gas.
Everybody watching, everybody knows,
Started from the bottom,
now we’re selling out shows.
Still got the hunger,
still chasing the sound,
Lost a few friends but I finally found…
{heavy 808 hits} If the sky comes crashing,
We’ll build another ceiling.
If they stop believing,
We’ll give them another feeling.
{breakdown, stripped drums}
You’re my glowing heart
in the middle of the dark,
Every time you leave,
you leave another spark.
Hands up high, let the whole world see,
You’re the only one that still believes in me.
We’ll turn the silence into stadium lights,
Singing every word till the morning sunrise.
You’re my glowing heart…
forever in the dark.
{full drop reprise, choir layers} Yeah… From the skyline glow… To the
sunrise… This one’s for the dreamers.
{fading pads
and reverb tails}
