Skyline Keeps Us Up (Version 2)

Verse

Concrete cooling under our shoes

Last taxi lights still humming through

Windows catch the amber haze

Skyline holding onto the day

Someone's jacket left on the chair

Street is empty save for this air

City still breathing, slow and low

Night lets go but we don't let go

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from the ground to my chest

Feet won't stop till the whole block rests

Something in me won't say goodbye

Skyline keeps us up, skyline keeps us alive

Chorus

We don't fall when the night turns grey

Skyline keeps us up at 4:30 play

Hearts still racing, feet won't slow

City holds onto the glow

Verse

Rooftop water tank turns pink and gold

Sirens fade to a distant lullaby told

Strangers' shadows stretch out long

Streetlight humming a lonely song

Someone's phone light flickers on the wall

Windows catching the last of it all

We stay for the color, we stay for sound

Skyline keeps us up, never letting down

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from the ground to my chest

Feet won't stop till the whole block rests

Something in me won't say goodbye

Skyline keeps us up, skyline keeps us alive

Chorus

We don't fall when the night turns grey

Skyline keeps us up at 4:30 play

Hearts still racing, feet won't slow

City holds onto the glow

Bridge

No clock left to tell me when it's done

Just the hush of gold becoming sun

Let the tired fade into the blue

This is the hour the city stays true

Chorus

We don't fall when the night turns grey

Skyline keeps us up at 4:30 play

Hearts still racing, feet won't slow

City holds onto the glow
