Cut to the Fire (версия 2)

Verse

Grit under my feet

Static on the airwaves of my mind

Two hands up before the sirens light

I'm chasing something I can't find

A thousand strangers moving like one flesh

Every face a spark where the wild things dwell

We don't need a reason, we just need the sound

Running out of time till this whole thing falls

Pre-Chorus

So hold your breath for five more hours

Hold it in 'til the dawn breaks through

Chorus

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Hands up, cut the wire

We're wide awake tonight

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Grit under my feet, I'm not going down

This is what it means to turn this place around

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Nothing left but skin and sky

I am wide awake till we run dry

Verse

Neon in my hairline, sweat like a river

Screams echoing off the parking lot wall

We're not running from anything anymore

This is how I learn to be brave at all

Somebody's shouting 'Turn it up!' somebody's crying

I don't know who said it but it makes me fly

Every step we take, every word we write

Leaves a shadow of something left behind

Pre-Chorus

So hold your breath for five more hours

Hold it in 'til the dawn breaks through

Chorus

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Hands up, cut the wire

We're wide awake tonight

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Grit under my feet, I'm not going down

This is what it means to turn this place around

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Nothing left but skin and sky

I am wide awake till we run dry

Bridge

Let go of the edge of everything

Watch it shatter into stars instead

One last scream before the daylight breaks

This is where I leave my ghost behind

Chorus

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Hands up, cut the wire

We're wide awake tonight

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Grit under my feet, I'm not going down

This is what it means to turn this place around

Cut to the fire

Cut to the fire

Nothing left but skin and sky

I am wide awake till we run dry
