Burning Out the Light

Intro

Rising above the heat

Burning out the light

Verse

Concrete cracking under every foot that lands

Every window shatters in this city's hands

Sirens turn to silence where the crowd stands tall

Nobody counting seconds when we all fall

Copper sky behind a haze of smoke and flame

Bodies move like nothing left but name after name

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it climbing up your spine?

This is how we start a new design

One more heartbeat before the fire goes

Nothing standing here but what this moment shows

Chorus

Burning out the light, into the blue

We don't need tomorrow, we burn it through

Hold my hand through the embers and gold

Tonight this city only knows how to let go

Let. It. Burn.

Burning out the light, into the blue

Every shadow's dancing like it knew

Verse 2

Rooftops catch the glow that nobody throws back

Sirens call for order but the streets don't look back

Somebody's laughing loud enough to drown a drum

The whole city breathing heavy till the night comes up

Ash falls soft behind a fire truck's glow

Nobody calling out what we're about to know

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it climbing up your spine?

This is how we start a new design

One more heartbeat before the fire goes

Nothing standing here but what this moment shows

Chorus

Burning out the light, into the blue

We don't need tomorrow, we burn it through

Hold my hand through the embers and gold

Tonight this city only knows how to let go

Let. It. Burn.

Burning out the light, into the blue

Every shadow's dancing like it knew

Bridge

Maybe this is what they call the break of day

Not the sunrise but the whole sky turning grey

Somebody's laughing loud enough to drown a drum

We're not chasing morning — we are running from nothing

This isn't reckless, this is breaking free

Let go already — I'm burning with you and me

Chorus

Burning out the light, into the blue

We don't need tomorrow, we burn it through

Hold my hand through the embers and gold

Tonight this city only knows how to let go

Let. It. Burn.

Burning out the light, into the blue

Every shadow's dancing like it knew
