Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Pressed against the bathroom door
Plastic cup shaking in my hand
Tile floor tilting like a wave
I can't hear what they're saying
Flashes from a stranger's phone
Bassline pushing through my chest
Every laugh feels like it's aimed
Right between my ribs
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I text myself "it's fine"
Then I slip out of the line
Coat half on
Heart off time
Just need air
Just need out
[Chorus]
So I ran from the party
Heart loud in my ears
Breath short
Eyes blurry
Thought I'd disappear
Till the streetlights
Streetlights
Spelled my name in gold
Little halos on the pavement
Saying "you’re not alone"
Under streetlights
Streetlights
I finally slowed
Every glowing little circle
Felt a lot like home
[Verse 2]
Cold night
Collar to my chin
Sidewalk cracks like dotted lines
Every step a shaky prayer
Every car a warning sign
Counting numbers
Matching steps
One-two-three with every breath
Then the dark broke into rings
Soft and honest overhead
[Pre-Chorus]
Yellow pools on busted roads
Lighting up the old brick rows
Felt like faces I once knew
Saying
"hey
We waited for you"
[Chorus]
So I ran from the party
Heart loud in my ears
Breath short
Eyes blurry
Thought I'd disappear
Till the streetlights
Streetlights
Spelled my name in gold
Little halos on the pavement
Saying "you’re not alone"
Under streetlights
Streetlights
I finally slowed
Every glowing little circle
Felt a lot like home
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] Hands in my pockets
Knees still weak
But the panic broke
Where the corners meet
Where the corner store sign
Flickers out then on
And the lamppost hum
Hums me along (woah)
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals] I am ok
I am still here
I am more than
My worst fear
[crescendo] Singing I am okay
Right here on this road
With the streetlights
Streetlights
Guiding me home
[Chorus]
