Rise till the dark breaks (versie 2)

Verse

Corner store neon fading on my face

Cold floorboards holding what's left of the night

I used to count blocks by a single step

Never thought I'd cross over this one street

But that's just math when you don't know how it feels

Now I see in color and everything else is wheels

Pre-Chorus

Something inside me opens wide like glass

Feel every shadow lift off my skin at last

Chorus

I rise till the dark breaks free

Sunrise over concrete, this is how it's meant to be

I used to count blocks but I'm counting stars now

This is all mine and I don't let go somehow

Verse 2

Someone asked me if I ever think of before

Before the static got turned into more

It's funny how little those streets hold in light

Every streetlamp was just a border to cross tonight

Now my feet keep time like they know the code

Nothing left behind is worth the weight I've owed

Pre-Chorus

Something inside me opens wide like glass

Feel every shadow lift off my skin at last

Chorus

I rise till the dark breaks free

Sunrise over concrete, this is how it's meant to be

I used to count blocks but I'm counting stars now

This is all mine and I don't let go somehow

Bridge

Maybe this whole block was just a door

Maybe every shadow had a reason to roar

Whatever made me stay will never be enough

The sky is burning bright, it's not afraid of enough

I am the light that nobody expected

This city needed someone who forgot the defect

Chorus

I rise till the dark breaks free

Sunrise over concrete, this is how it's meant to be

I used to count blocks but I'm counting stars now

This is all mine and I don't let go somehow
