[Verse 1]
Every branch of the bloodline
Got a secret in the spine
Cards on fire in a backpack
Kids on a transatlantic flight
Codes carved under train seats
Old ink in a library light
Trust runs thin as a razor
Family war in the dead of night
[Chorus]
It’s the 39 clues
And we’re running
Every page is a fuse that we’re gunning (hey!)
From the tombs to the towers and the ruins
World on the line
And the clock keeps moving
Yeah
The 39 clues we’re choosing
Every step
Someone’s winning
Someone’s losing
But we’re still gonna break right through
’Til the last locked box comes true
[Verse 2]
Paris fog on a cold bridge
Cobras smile with a silver tongue
Poison pens in the passport
Chasing ghosts that died too young
Ancient maps in a subway
Allies shift with a single lie
Brother
Sister
No compass
Just a dare and a battle cry (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
It’s the 39 clues
And we’re running
Every page is a fuse that we’re gunning
From the tombs to the towers and the ruins
World on the line
And the clock keeps moving
Yeah
The 39 clues we’re choosing
Every step
Someone’s winning
Someone’s losing
But we’re still gonna break right through
’Til the last locked box comes true
[Bridge]
Some call it glory
Some call it crime
Kids caught up in a legend
Bigger than time
If blood is a weapon
What do you do?
You rewrite the ending
You change the truth
[Chorus]
It’s the 39 clues
And we’re running
Every page is a fuse that we’re gunning (woah)
From the tombs to the towers and the ruins
World on the line
And the clock keeps moving
Yeah
The 39 clues we’re choosing
Every step
Someone’s winning
Someone’s losing
But we’re still gonna break right through
’Til the last lost clue finds you
