Mirage Horizon (Version 2)

Verse 1

I run the night in my own two feet

Racing time against the neon heat

Every step I take makes me forget

The weight of who we used to be

You keep your eyes locked on mine like a gun

Burning hotter with every single one

Of these city blocks and dirty concrete grey

This is where our shadows come alive today

I know you see it too, the pulse behind my eyes

A whole different world beyond the sirens' cry

And I don't need your words to tell me how it's done

Just watch this body move beneath the setting sun

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that line where the light turns grey?

Where the noise goes quiet and we're left with the fray?

We can run it, chase it down

Before the dawn comes rolling into town

Let's lose ourselves in the colors of this night

Take us higher, take it all and make it right

Chorus

This is our city, ours alone tonight

Every single light we're chasing is burning bright

We own these streets, we run them till the sun

Come up over us before the night's undone

Mirage horizon, we'll outrun the blue

In the heart of this storm, that's where I find you

This is our city, ours alone tonight

Verse 2

Every fire in the alley says come and take it all

Your shadow follows mine across these crumbling walls

And every door we kick open just a little bit wider

Leaves more room for us to disappear inside

You don't need my hand to know where this night's headed

Just watch your eyes light up like that when we're headed straight for it

I'm not asking who you are, I already know what you feel

We burn the maps and leave nothing but ash behind

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that line where the light turns grey?

Where the noise goes quiet and we're left with the fray?

We can run it, chase it down

Before the dawn comes rolling into town

Let's lose ourselves in the colors of this night

Take us higher, take it all and make it right

Chorus

This is our city, ours alone tonight

Every single light we're chasing is burning bright

We own these streets, we run them till the sun

Come up over us before the night's undone

Mirage horizon, we'll outrun the blue

In the heart of this storm, that's where I find you

This is our city, ours alone tonight

Bridge

I don't need your name, I only need this moment in time

The way my chest keeps rising every single time

We can be two strangers walking down the line

But right here and now we are the same heartbeat in sync

No walls to climb when the whole city's on fire

Only us against the sky, with nothing but desire

I don't want your hand, I just want you by my side

Where the smoke is rising and we both keep falling hard until it ends

Chorus

This is our city, ours alone tonight

Every single light we're chasing is burning bright

We own these streets, we run them till the sun

Come up over us before the night's undone

Mirage horizon, we'll outrun the blue

In the heart of this storm, that's where I find you

This is our city, ours alone tonight
