Golden Skies

I left my keys on the kitchen tile

Told myself I’d stay a while

But the road keeps calling my name

And every promise feels the same

You say “don’t run,” but you don’t look back I’m tired of

living half a track So I breathe in,

count to four

And reach for something more (oh)

Turn it up, let the ceiling shake

We’re alive for the chance we take If the world says “no,”

we lean in close And sing it loud,

that’s all we know (yeah) (oh-oh) (oh-oh)

Your jacket’s still on my old chair

Like you might be waiting there I try to laugh it off

in town But every song can drag me down So I keep

moving, keep it clean Like I’m not feeling in between

I don’t need a perfect plan

Just a moment where I can

Say the truth without a shield And let the noise turn into

real (oh)

Turn it up, let the ceiling shake

We’re alive for the chance we take If the world says “no,”

we lean in close And sing it loud,

that’s all we know (yeah)

When the lights go out,

I still hear you

In the quiet parts I can’t outrun

So I stop pretending I’m made of stone And I ask for

love like I’m not alone (ahhhh)

Turn it up, let the ceiling shake

We’re alive for the chance we take

If the world says “no,” we lean in close And sing it

loud, that’s all we know Turn it up,

let the ceiling shake We’re alive for the chance we take (oh-oh) (yeah) (oh-oh)
