Gold in the Wire

Verse 1

Concrete streets and neon signs

Every window glowing bright inside

Hundred voices calling to the sky

Counting down until the signal flies

I was broke but I still made a bet

Said I'd catch it before the clock is set

Every dollar spinning on the wheel of chance

Nothing's holding me from taking over this dance

Pre-Chorus

Feel that wire humming underneath my skin

Watch it build and watch it break again

Chorus

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

We were chasing lightning till we hit the fire

Now the city's burning bright behind us tonight

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

Nothing but the pulse keeps me alive tonight

Every heartbeat is a thousand miles of light

Verse 2

Sneakers pounding on the underground floor

Chasing shadows I've never seen before

Every stranger turning into family fast

We're the thunderstorm that no one planned for last

I was broke but I still held onto hope

Said the night would pay me back in double scope

Every dollar spinning on a turn of fate

Nothing's holding me from owning up to this weight

Pre-Chorus

Feel that wire humming underneath my skin

Watch it build and watch it break again

Chorus

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

We were chasing lightning till we hit the fire

Now the city's burning bright behind us tonight

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

Nothing but the pulse keeps me alive tonight

Every heartbeat is a thousand miles of light

Bridge

Maybe I was broke before I made the call

Maybe this was something no one ever saw at all

But now my hands are shaking and I'm on fire

Watch it burn like thunder when it reaches higher

Chorus

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

We were chasing lightning till we hit the fire

Now the city's burning bright behind us tonight

Gold in the wire, gold in the wire

Nothing but the pulse keeps me alive tonight

Every heartbeat is a thousand miles of light
