I’ve been runnin’ from the silence
Like a ghost inside my skin
Every memory’s a riot
Every heartbeat pulls me in
Got a fire in my veins now
But it’s burnin’ through the truth
If I’m standin’ on the edge, girl
I’m still reachin’ out for you
(Pre-Chorus)
And I don’t wanna be the one who fades
Buried under all the choices that I made
(Chorus)
So light me up—
Let’s burn the night alive,
Screamin’ at the heavens
Like we’re never gonna die.
We’re broken but we’re standin’,
Yeah, we’re barely holdin’ on—
But if the world goes dark
Then you and I’ll be the dawn.
(Verse 2)
Every shadow’s got a secret
Yeah, I’ve carried more than most
But you’re the reason I’m still breathin’
You’re the warmth inside the cold
Got a war inside my chest, babe
But you cut right through the noise
When the chaos starts to drown me
You remind me I’ve got a choice
(Pre-Chorus)
And I don’t wanna be another scar
Left behind inside the wreckage of my heart
(Chorus)
So light me up—
Let’s burn the night alive,
Screamin’ at the heavens
Like we’re never gonna die.
We’re broken but we’re standin’,
Yeah, we’re barely holdin’ on—
But if the world goes dark
Then you and I’ll be the dawn.
(Bridge)
I’ve walked through the fire,
I’ve danced with the blame
But somehow you pull me
Back out of the flame
If this is forever
Or just for tonight—
Then hold on to me
Till we both ignite.
(Final Chorus)
So light me up—
Let’s burn the night alive,
Raise our voices higher
Till the stars fall from the sky.
We’re broken but we’re standin’,
Yeah, we’re barely holdin’ on—
But when the world goes dark
You and I remain the dawn
