Streetlight Horizon (Version 2)

Verse

Barefoot on the cracked sidewalk concrete

Headlights cutting through smoke and steam

Torn jeans, borrowed sneakers tonight

Falling into rhythm for a reason

Old apartment tower turning amber gold

Someone's radio bleeding low and slow

I used to think the edge of the block was mine alone

But now it feels like something bigger than a home

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what happens when the sun comes up again

Tell me if this feeling ever gets old or ends

Chorus

We're running out into the streetlight glow

Chasing down every step until we know

Where the sky gives in and turns to gold

Nothing here can ever hold us back, no more

Verse

New scars on your wrist from climbing fire escapes

Smoke curls up off a half-closed window shade

Strangers shouting at a corner store phone booth

Your hand slips into mine like it's the only home

I never thought I'd make it past this block of pain

But tonight the sky forgot to lock its gate

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what happens when the sun comes up again

Tell me if this feeling ever gets old or ends

Chorus

We're running out into the streetlight glow

Chasing down every step until we know

Where the sky gives in and turns to gold

Nothing here can ever hold us back, no more

Bridge

Maybe every scar is just a map

Every broken thing becomes something new

I'm not scared of the dark when I've got you near me now

Tonight's the only promise that matters anyway

Chorus

We're running out into the streetlight glow

Chasing down every step until we know

Where the sky gives in and turns to gold

Nothing here can ever hold us back, no more
