[Verse 1]
Woke up in the glare of a tangled room
Clothes on the chair
Records on the floor
Your name on the wall in a blue felt pen
Faded
But it burns like it did back then
[Chorus]
Shimmering highs
Running through the wires of my tired mind
We were two bright lines
Crossing in the glow of a Friday night
Shimmering highs
Crashing like a wave on the edge of time
You and I
Just flickers in the shimmering highs
[Verse 2]
We traced our plans on a subway map
Laughing at the gaps where the ink ran out
You said
"If we jump
We don't look down"
Still hear that dare in the rush of sound
[Chorus]
Shimmering highs
Running through the wires of my tired mind
We were two bright lines
Crossing in the glow of a Friday night
Shimmering highs
Crashing like a wave on the edge of time
You and I
Just flickers in the shimmering highs
[Bridge]
Did we ever land
Or are we still falling
Names on a hand
Numbers I'm calling (oh oh)
Every little spark
Hangs in the dark tonight
[Chorus]
Shimmering highs
Running through the wires of my tired mind
We were two bright lines
Crossing in the glow of a Friday night
Shimmering highs
Crashing like a wave on the edge of time
You and I
Still flickers in the shimmering highs
