Sprint Into The Static (version 2)

Verse

Sixteen and the pavement's already burning

Popsicle sweet on a tongue built for running

Sprinklers hit the block like a starting gun

Every single day feels like the last one

Tank top soaked, hair stuck to my neck

Chasing that gold before the sun sets

Bare feet slapping on the hot asphalt

This is the summer we were built to lose it all

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the heat rise off the street

Every heartbeat matching every beat

We got nothing but this hour and the light

So run like the whole world's watching tonight

Chorus

Sprint into the static, chase the glow

Legs on fire, we're too young to slow

Heartbeat loud like a radio

Sprint into the static, here we go

Skin on gold, we're never coming down

Sprint into the static, our whole town

Nothing left to lose, nowhere else to be

Sprint into the static, wild and free

Verse

Bike chains rusted, but we ride 'em anyway

Grass stains proof of every reckless day

Firefly hour, streetlights just turned on

Nobody's calling us home till dawn

Corner store slushies dripping down our wrists

Racing shadows till the daylight quits

Every scraped knee is a trophy we keep

This is the summer that we swore we'd never sleep

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the heat rise off the street

Every heartbeat matching every beat

We got nothing but this hour and the light

So run like the whole world's watching tonight

Chorus

Sprint into the static, chase the glow

Legs on fire, we're too young to slow

Heartbeat loud like a radio

Sprint into the static, here we go

Skin on gold, we're never coming down

Sprint into the static, our whole town

Nothing left to lose, nowhere else to be

Sprint into the static, wild and free

Bridge

Someday we'll be older, slower, far from here

Someday this will fade into a souvenir

But right now the static's all we know

So hold my hand and don't let go

Chorus

Sprint into the static, chase the glow

Legs on fire, we're too young to slow

Heartbeat loud like a radio

Sprint into the static, here we go

Skin on gold, we're never coming down

Sprint into the static, our whole town

Nothing left to lose, nowhere else to be

Sprint into the static, wild and free
