[Verse]
Twenty-five candles they flicker and sway
Thought I'd be shining by now
No delay
Dreams in my pocket but they're weighing me down
Chasing the skyline
Still stuck in this town
[Prechorus]
Every neon sign
It whispers my name
Every heartbeat says I'm losing the game
[Chorus]
Twenty five years dreams
Twenty five years schemes
I was building castles
Now they're cracking at the seams
Twenty five years dreams
Fading like steam
But the fire's still burning
Won't give up the theme
[Verse 2]
Got a watch on my wrist but it's counting my fears
Every tick-tock reminds me of wasted years
The mirror shows someone I don't recognize
But deep in my chest
Hope refuses to die
[Prechorus]
Every city light
It calls out my soul
Every shadow mocks the things I can't control
[Chorus]
Twenty five years dreams
Twenty five years screams
I was chasing sunsets but they're slipping from the beams
Twenty five years
Drowning in streams
But the fire's still burning
I'm not losing the gleam
