Where the Skyline Forgets (Version 2)

Verse

Taxi lights fade into grey concrete

Last train's gone, it's just my heartbeat

Glitter on my jacket, smoke still in my hair

The bassline's gone but I'm still there

Streets are empty, breath is slow

Neon signs forgot to glow

Four a.m. turns silver, then it turns to gold

Every step I take feels like I'm letting go

Pre-Chorus

And the sky starts breathing color through the haze

Can you feel it change, can you feel the light erase

Every shadow that we ran from in the dark

This is where the night and morning fall apart

Chorus

Where the skyline forgets

Where the city exhales

We're the echo that's left

Chasing gold through the veils

Hands up, heart wide, standing still in the blaze

This is where the skyline forgets the night's name

Verse

Rooftop, cold rail underneath my hand

Skyscrapers turning into amber sand

Somebody's laughing on the corner down below

Same song stuck inside my head, so slow, so slow

Eyes half open, world half real

Something breaking, something I can feel

The horizon's bleeding orange through the blue

Everything I lost still glows like something new

Pre-Chorus

And the sky starts breathing color through the haze

Can you feel it change, can you feel the light erase

Every shadow that we ran from in the dark

This is where the night and morning fall apart

Chorus

Where the skyline forgets

Where the city exhales

We're the echo that's left

Chasing gold through the veils

Hands up, heart wide, standing still in the blaze

This is where the skyline forgets the night's name

Bridge

Maybe we don't go home

Maybe we let it hold

Just this light, just this air

Just this one hour we share

No goodbyes, no next time

Only sunrise, only mine

Only sunrise, only mine

Chorus

Where the skyline forgets

Where the city exhales

We're the echo that's left

Chasing gold through the veils

Hands up, heart wide, standing still in the blaze

This is where the skyline forgets the night's name
