Aurora in the Dark 4

Verse

Streetlights humming like a gentle tide

Rustling leaves beneath my bare feet tonight

Every window glows with light inside

I chase the shadows through the trees so tall

Where the stars are hiding, I hear them call

Pre-Chorus

Is this how the sun comes in?

Quiet and slow at first then bursting wide

Chorus

Aurora in the dark

Painting everything with gold and spark

Every edge of night begins to shine

Morning's breaking out where shadows used to line

I run into the dawn, feet bare on stone

Rays are climbing up my arms so alone

Verse

Pigeons take flight like they're learning to soar

I laugh at the wind for trying to roar

The streetlamp swallows its own beam of light

But I don't need it to show me what's right

Pre-Chorus

Is this how the sun comes in?

Quiet and slow at first then bursting wide

Chorus

Aurora in the dark

Painting everything with gold and spark

Every edge of night begins to shine

Morning's breaking out where shadows used to line

I run into the dawn, feet bare on stone

Rays are climbing up my arms so alone

Bridge

No clock is counting down this hour

Just the sun unfolding in the power

Of every breath and every stride I take

Where light was hiding waiting for me to break free

Chorus

Aurora in the dark

Painting everything with gold and spark

Every edge of night begins to shine

Morning's breaking out where shadows used to line

I run into the dawn, feet bare on stone

Rays are climbing up my arms so alone
