We Own the Light (Version 3)

Verse

Six a.m., the streetlights fade to gold

Sneakers sliding on the parking lot cold

Nobody's watching but I own this block

Rope swing creaks where the city stops

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Is it just the sunrise or something mine?

We don't need a reason, we just take what's ours

Sunrise in our pockets like we're walking through walls for sure

Chorus

We own the light, we own the night

Dancing on rooftops, chasing every color in flight

Feet don't touch the ground, hearts don't need a name

We own the light, and it's ours to claim

Verse 2

Barefoot on the railing where the city starts to blur

Radio static turns into birdsong for sure

Fire hydrant spray paints us gold, nobody cares

This is the only version of morning we can share

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Is it just the sunrise or something mine?

We don't need a reason, we just take what's ours

Sunrise in our pockets like we're walking through walls for sure

Chorus

We own the light, we own the night

Dancing on rooftops, chasing every color in flight

Feet don't touch the ground, hearts don't need a name

We own the light, and it's ours to claim

Bridge

Some day this feeling'll be just a memory

So I'm gonna write it all across my ceiling

Rainbow paint on the walls, a map of who we used to be

Nothing gold can stay, but we don't have time for grey

Chorus

We own the light, we own the night

Dancing on rooftops, chasing every color in flight

Feet don't touch the ground, hearts don't need a name

We own the light, and it's ours to claim
