Sky in Ash (versie 2)

Verse 1

Grey light bleeds across the ceiling fan

Four in the morning, nobody's gone

Streetlights fade to orange then white again

Feet still moving like we're chasing dawn

Chains rattle loose on a broken gate

Speakers hum where the bassline waits

Every window rattles, every door swings late

This is how our generation learns to fly

Pre-Chorus

Feel it building in my chest now

Something new, something slow down

The sun won't rise until we let it go

Can you feel the floor start to glow?

Chorus

We're breaking through the black into blue

Skin on skin where the sky breaks through

Every shadow learns how to move

This is how the city starts anew

Hold your hands up, don't look back

We're breaking through the black into blue

Verse 2

Cigarette butts turning into gold

Someone's laughing like they never got old

The whole block hums on a single chord

Every heart beats out a language that's ours

Streetlights flicker then let go of white

Pigeons scatter from the rising light

Nobody's tired, nobody's late

This is how we turn the dark into day

Pre-Chorus

Feel it building in my chest now

Something new, something slow down

The sun won't rise until we let it go

Can you feel the floor start to glow?

Chorus

We're breaking through the black into blue

Skin on skin where the sky breaks through

Every shadow learns how to move

This is how the city starts anew

Hold your hands up, don't look back

We're breaking through the black into blue

Bridge

Last night's ghosts burn off my shoulders now

Something brighter than a light switch allows

Windows turn silver, then they turn gold

No more shadows left to hold

Chorus

We're breaking through the black into blue

Skin on skin where the sky breaks through

Every shadow learns how to move

This is how the city starts anew

Hold your hands up, don't look back

We're breaking through the black into blue
