Past the Skyline – The Vertexs

Verse

Six a.m. and the block's still quiet

Steam off the coffee, I don't deny it

Laced up my shoes before the sun made a sound

Left every doubt in the sheets I unwound

City's asleep but my feet already know

Where the light hits the glass, that's the way I go

Pre-Chorus

Can I bottle this up

Keep it close, keep it loud

Something's rising in my chest

Won't come down, won't come down

Chorus

I'm holding on to this feeling

Riding gold past the skyline ceiling

Nothing's touching me, nothing's stealing

This right here, I'm holding on to this feeling

Verse

Elevator door, my reflection grins back

Pressed collar sharp, no room for the slack

Every horn on the avenue sounds like a cheer

Like the whole town woke up just to bring me here

I don't need a reason, I don't need a sign

This is just mine, this is just mine

Pre-Chorus

Can I bottle this up

Keep it close, keep it loud

Something's rising in my chest

Won't come down, won't come down

Chorus

I'm holding on to this feeling

Riding gold past the skyline ceiling

Nothing's touching me, nothing's stealing

This right here, I'm holding on to this feeling

Bridge

Maybe tomorrow it fades to grey

Maybe the traffic will steal my day

But right now the light's still mine to keep

So I'm writing this moment in ink, not sleep

No, I won't let it slip, I won't let it go

Chorus

I'm holding on to this feeling

Riding gold past the skyline ceiling

Nothing's touching me, nothing's stealing

This right here, I'm holding on to this feeling

I'm holding on to this feeling
