Hold Still (Static Sky)

Intro

Bassline hums through the floor

You don't look back once you cross over

Verse

Concrete's cold beneath my boots

Every window's got a face I knew

The city's breathing like a living thing

I'm just a heartbeat trying to break through

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it takes to keep this going

Tell me how far I can run before

The weight of everything pulls me down

Chorus

Hold still, hold still

Let the static sky ignite

Every fear that tried to take me under

Turns into a fire in my eyes

I won't look back, I won't lose this feeling

I was born for this, I won't die here

Hold still, let it all burn

Verse

Strangers' shadows turn to family

Every broken door I kicked open wide

The silence used to swallow me whole

Now the bassline eats the dark alive

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it takes to keep this going

Tell me how far I can run before

The weight of everything pulls me down

Chorus

Hold still, hold still

Let the static sky ignite

Every fear that tried to take me under

Turns into a fire in my eyes

I won't look back, I won't lose this feeling

I was born for this, I won't die here

Hold still, let it all burn

Bridge

Maybe falling's just another name for flying

Maybe the ground beneath me isn't solid as it seems

So I'm holding on to nothing but the noise that's mine

And I'd rather burn like lightning than stay safe in the breeze

Chorus

Hold still, hold still

Let the static sky ignite

Every fear that tried to take me under

Turns into a fire in my eyes

I won't look back, I won't lose this feeling

I was born for this, I won't die here

Hold still, let it all burn

Outro

So hold still

And watch the world go white

Let it all burn
