[Verse 1]
Neon on your collar
Circuit scars along your jaw
Laughing in the crossfire
Like you never learned to stop
You say
“Pick a side”
But the city’s in my veins
Every broken warning sign
Spells out my name
[Chorus]
I glow
When the blackout hits
I glow
In the crosshairs
Still I glow
Turn the night up
Watch me glow (oh)
I glow
When they cut the power
I glow
Burning through the static
I glow
Can’t kill what you can’t control
[Verse 2]
Boots on scorched concrete
Heartbeat racing every drone
Barcode on my wristband
Says I don’t belong
But I bend the skyline
Till it bends back into me
Every shuttered window
Becomes a screen
[Pre-Chorus]
You can try to dim me down
Stack your shadows all around
But the darker that you make it
The brighter that I break it (hey!)
[Chorus]
I glow
When the blackout hits
I glow
In the crosshairs
Still I glow
Turn the night up
Watch me glow (yeah)
I glow
When they cut the power
I glow
Burning through the static
I glow
Can’t kill what you can’t control
[Bridge]
[Beat drops
Chopped vocal stutters under filtered riff]
Hands up
For the ones they wrote off
Lights up
For the ones still switched on
If I’m a target
Paint me in gold
If I’m a warning
Let it be bold
[Chorus]
I glow
When the blackout hits
I glow
In the crosshairs
Still I glow
Turn the night up
Watch me glow (watch me)
I glow
When they cut the power
I glow
Burning through the static
I glow
Can’t kill what you can’t control
