Lyrics

Verse

Concrete floor still humming low

Four fifteen, the exit glows

Someone's jacket, someone's name

Fading out like the last refrain

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it turning

Sky's a colour we ain't seen

Bass still burning

Underneath the in-between

Chorus

We move before dawn

Feet don't stop when the light comes on

We move before dawn

Verse

Sneakers dragging through the grey

Streetlights losing to the day

Hands still buzzing, ears still ring

Chasing one more hour to sing

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it turning

Sky's a colour we ain't seen

Bass still burning

Underneath the in-between

Chorus

We move before dawn

Feet don't stop when the light comes on

We move before dawn

Bridge

Gold on the rooftops now

Nobody's leaving yet somehow

Shadows stretching thin and long

We're the reason night stays on

Chorus

We move before dawn

Feet don't stop when the light comes on

We move before dawn
