We Hold The Light Down

Verse

Glass against my collarbone where the strobe light cuts

I feel your breath at my earlobe like a small spark in the dark

Fingers tracing down my spine past the shoulder blade

Somebody's laughing near the exit sign but we don't leave yet

Your palm slides up the length of my arm as we sway

Nothing outside these walls to hold us back from here

Your voice is low in my right ear, soft against the sound

Of our own feet finding their own rhythm on the floor

We move in perfect time without a second thought

And for one moment none of this will ever end

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it building inside your chest?

Something that's been waiting all along to be free

We're standing right where we want to be

Nothing holding us back from the light

Chorus

Hold it down, hold it high

Right here with your eyes open wide

Nobody's watching how this feels

And I won't let go till morning breaks

Hold it down, hold it steady

Right now in the silver haze

This is where we've always meant to be

So don't even think about letting go

Verse

Your knee brushes mine near the subwoofer hum

We trade a look that says we're not done yet

Somebody's shouting from across the room but we don't hear it

You keep your hands on my waist where they can stay

I feel your pulse in time with mine like two drums aligning

Nobody's counting down till this is over

This whole night belongs to us alone right here

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it building inside your chest?

Something that's been waiting all along to be free

We're standing right where we want to be

Nothing holding us back from the light

Chorus

Hold it down, hold it high

Right here with your eyes open wide

Nobody's watching how this feels

And I won't let go till morning breaks

Hold it down, hold it steady

Right now in the silver haze

This is where we've always meant to be

So don't even think about letting go

Bridge

No clock on the wall that matters right now

Only the heat coming off your collarbone

I'm not counting down till we both agree

To stay here forever with these lights still low

Let it roll, let it build higher

This is where we come alive tonight

Don't try to chase the edge of this place

We're already on the other side of time

Chorus

Hold it down, hold it high

Right here with your eyes open wide

Nobody's watching how this feels

And I won't let go till morning breaks

Hold it down, hold it steady

Right now in the silver haze

This is where we've always meant to be

So don't even think about letting go
