Rise Before Dawn (Version 2)

Intro

Rise before dawn

Verse 1

Every light in this room is my own now

Counting down till the ceiling opens up somehow

City still sleeping while we're already gone

Blood and basslines making a brand new song

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing, climbing through your spine?

This is how the morning steals every line.

Hold on tight, don't let it fade away

We were never just here to play the game

Chorus

Rise before dawn, we don't stop till then

Every heartbeat a door that swings us in again

Hands up like fire and voices of gold

This is how we make daylight out of the cold

Rise before dawn, nobody's letting go now

Sunrise is ours when we learn to see it grow

Verse 2

Bass in my ribcage, hands on your shoulders too

Clock keeps spinning backwards, counting all that we knew

Sweat on our temples like we're breaking the mold

Every stranger a brother that we've never been told

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing, climbing through your spine?

This is how the morning steals every line.

Hold on tight, don't let it fade away

We were never just here to play the game

Chorus

Rise before dawn, we don't stop till then

Every heartbeat a door that swings us in again

Hands up like fire and voices of gold

This is how we make daylight out of the cold

Rise before dawn, nobody's letting go now

Sunrise is ours when we learn to see it grow

Bridge

Lights turn from purple to pale gold light

Something wakes in every single one of us tonight

Let it rise up through the floorboards and walls

This is how the night forgets its shadows at all

Outro

Rise before dawn

We don't stop till then
