Street Lights Catch the Current (version 3)

Verse

Old gym windows fogged from inside

Streetlight flicker, I don't check the time

Tape on my sneakers, sweat on the door

Never ran this far before

Rats in the alley sniff what we throw

Pre-Chorus

Something's building under my chest

Don't know where it ends or when to rest

Every step feels like a debt I owe

Keep pushing till the lights turn low

Chorus

Streetlights catch the current on my skin

I don't stop until the dark gives in

This is how you learn to hold your ground

Every heartbeat counting out what's left of town

Verse 2

Taxi cab windows pass like a row of mirrors

Same streets we thought we knew better

Palm trees shaking branches at an angle so wrong

Nobody told me this would be my song

Pre-Chorus

Something's building under my chest

Don't know where it ends or when to rest

Every step feels like a debt I owe

Keep pushing till the lights turn low

Chorus

Streetlights catch the current on my skin

I don't stop until the dark gives in

This is how you learn to hold your ground

Every heartbeat counting out what's left of town

Bridge

Maybe this whole block was just a myth I fed myself

Maybe running's just another way to hide the hell

But there's something under my skin now that won't quit

I'd chase this even if it means falling into light

Chorus

Streetlights catch the current on my skin

I don't stop until the dark gives in

This is how you learn to hold your ground

Every heartbeat counting out what's left of town
