Chasing the Afterglow (Version 2) — Nordlicht Sequence

Verse

Four a.m. and the ceiling turns to sky

Strobe light catches like static in your eyes

Lost my jacket somewhere back in '09

Found it doesn't matter when the bassline climbs

Pre-Chorus

So hold my hand through the smoke and the sound

Let the speakers pull us up off the ground

Higher, higher, watch the rafters spin

Chorus

We're chasing the afterglow

Where the lights go slow and the world lets go

Hands up, heartbeat, echo, echo

Chasing the afterglow

Verse

Someone's shouting words I used to know

Painted colors bleeding through the strobe

Every stranger feels like family now

Same three chords but we don't need to know how

Pre-Chorus

So hold my hand through the smoke and the sound

Let the speakers pull us up off the ground

Higher, higher, watch the rafters spin

Chorus

We're chasing the afterglow

Where the lights go slow and the world lets go

Hands up, heartbeat, echo, echo

Chasing the afterglow

Bridge

When the sun comes up through the tinted glass

Gonna hold this feeling, make it last

No clock, no name, just the beat we found

Every heartbeat still ringing out

Chorus

We're chasing the afterglow

Where the lights go slow and the world lets go

Hands up, heartbeat, echo, echo

Chasing the afterglow
