Let It Burn Bright (versione 2)

Verse

Four in the morning and the fire still spits

Cigarette smoke drifting past my lips

The speakers hum where the crowd stood thin

Your voice is ringing deep inside my skin

Every scar I've got it's written gold

Every wall I broke was heavy, not cold

I was running from the light, I thought it'd hurt

Now I'm standing in it, and I think it's worth

Pre-Chorus

So what if this is who I'm meant to be?

Nothing left to hide now, nothing left to keep

Feel that rising like a sun we need

Chorus

Let it burn bright, let the light come through

Every shadow breaking, letting me feel brand new

I was frozen but you came for me tonight

Now I'm standing here still burning bright

Verse 2

Your hand on my collarbone, warm and slow

The bass line's steady where my heart used to go

I thought I'd never see the sky turn gold again

You showed me what it means to let something in

Every year I was losing myself

Was one more chance for me to prove I'm real

This town had a hold on how far I'd stray

Now your laughter's louder, chasing all the grey

Pre-Chorus

So what if this is who I'm meant to be?

Nothing left to hide now, nothing left to keep

Feel that rising like a sun we need

Chorus

Let it burn bright, let the light come through

Every shadow breaking, letting me feel brand new

I was frozen but you came for me tonight

Now I'm standing here still burning bright

Bridge

No more apologizing for my name

No more asking if this is worth the shame

I built a wall around myself one brick at time

Now it's falling down and I feel like gold, I feel like mine

Chorus

Let it burn bright, let the light come through

Every shadow breaking, letting me feel brand new

I was frozen but you came for me tonight

Now I'm standing here still burning bright
