[Verse 1]
Sunrise paints the sky a peach (Oooooh, yeah)
Life feels like it"s in my reach (In my reach, just out of reach...)
Dancing through the morning dew (Ohh, it"s slipping away...)
Every step is something new (New... every step, fading too)
[Verse 2]
Colors bright like candy tiles (Candy... so sweet)
Friends and laughter make me smile (Make me smile, but does it stay?)
Skipping stones on crystal lakes (Skipping stones... they sink, don’t they?)
Every moment"s what we make (Make it quick before it breaks...)
[Chorus]
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah (Ahhh, ahhh...)
Shine on, shine bright, feel the glow (Feel the glow, feel it fade)
Everywhere we go, we know (We know... do we know?)
Life"s a song and we all sing (We sing, but do we ever really sing?)
Let the happiness just ring (Ring, but it"s ringing... fading...)
[Verse 3].
Rainbows stretch from here to there (Here... to there... but will it stay?)
Dreams take flight up in the air (Take flight, but will they crash?)
Cotton clouds and lemon drops (Lemon drops, sour in the sweetness...)
Endless joy it never stops (Never stops... or does it?)
[Chorus].
Shine on, shine bright, feel the glow (Feel the glow, it’s burning slow...)
Everywhere we go, we know (We know... we thought we knew...)
Life"s a song and we all sing (Sing, but the notes are cracking...)
Let the happiness just ring (Let it ring, but it"s falling...)
[Verse 4]
Rainbows and sweet stuff, oh so fine (So fine... but too good to last...)
Candy hearts, forever mine (Forever? How long does forever last?)
Dancing in the light, we’re shining bright (Shining bright, but it’s burning... burning out...)
With rainbows and sweet stuff, everything’s all right (But... is it?)
[Bridge]
Hold my hand, we got this now (Got this... but do we? Do we?)
Chase the stars and take a bow (Take a bow... but we"re falling down)
In this world we’ll make our mark (We’ll make our mark... but will anyone see it?)
Shining brightly in the dark (Shining... but it’s fading fast...)
[Chorus]
Rainbows rise, but they’re made of fire (Fire... it’s burning, burning us)
A fleeting light, a broken desire (Broken... we’re breaking, aren’t we?)
Candy skies, but the sweetness fades (It fades... the sweetness is gone)
Dancing in the dark, where light decays (Light decays, crumbles to dust...)
Oh, oh, oh, the world’s so cold (So cold... too cold...)
In the silence where the stories unfold (Where stories... end...)
[Outro]
But in the quiet, shadows fall (Shadows fall... it’s all falling...)
The sweetness fades, no taste at all (No taste... it’s gone...)
Rainbows crumble, colors die (Crumble, die... they never last...)
A silent sky where dreams go dry (Where dreams go dry... just dust...)
What once was sweet now slips away (Slips away... and I can’t catch it...)
Lost in the dusk of another day... (Another day... slipping away...)
