Signal Fading Fast (Version 2)

Verse

Glass door opens to the rain on grey

Shadows dance along the sidewalk light

Every face I pass is a number now

Counting down till morning's first light

I've got the signal locked inside my chest

A countdown running in every breath I take

Five thousand feet of wet and darkened stone

One last message before it starts to break

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it too? The pull and then release?

Every second burning like a burning fuse?

Should I keep the fire going or let it fade?

Before it's gone and nothing's left behind

Chorus

Signal fading fast, but hold on to this spark

Lock inside the light before we're torn apart

Keep the countdown burning till the morning light

Don't let go of me, don't let me drift away tonight

Hold on tight, keep the signal high

Before it's gone and nothing's left behind

Verse 2

Windows rattle as a gust comes through

Every breath I take is counting down for two

The streetlamp flickers out but I still feel you here

A ghost of blue against this grey and wet and drear

I've got your face in my mind, the echo of your voice

Locking every beat until the morning's noise

Five thousand feet and falling fast now

Still we hold on to what's left in this dark somehow

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it too? The pull and then release?

Every second burning like a burning fuse?

Should I keep the fire going or let it fade?

Before it's gone and nothing's left behind

Chorus

Signal fading fast, but hold on to this spark

Lock inside the light before we're torn apart

Keep the countdown burning till the morning light

Don't let go of me, don't let me drift away tonight

Hold on tight, keep the signal high

Before it's gone and nothing's left behind

Bridge

Countdown... 1. Count the seconds.

Countdown... 2. Hold my hand through every beat.

Countdown... 3. Let this light guide us home at last.

Countdown... 4. Don't let go of me in the dark.

Countdown... 5. Keep it burning till the morning sky

Chorus

Signal fading fast, but hold on to this spark

Lock inside the light before we're torn apart

Keep the countdown burning till the morning light

Don't let go of me, don't let me drift away tonight

Hold on tight, keep the signal high

Before it's gone and nothing's left behind
