Cut Through the Fading Light lyrics
Intro
Glass is thin against my palm
Verse
Neon bleeding into the black
Cigarette smoke curling up the track
Your voice on the other end of the line
Asking if I'm still running out of time
I look for ghosts where shadows land
Counting miles and trying to understand
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it in your chest?
Is it pounding loud enough yet?
Chorus
Cut through the fading light, take me over into tonight
Leave a trail of cigarette smoke across these dying streets
We don't stop for dawn or darkness anymore
Just watch how far our shadows stretch and roar
I'm chasing every last degree before we lose this fire
I need to know if you can see it burning higher
Verse
Tire rubber on the wet black road
Windows full of nothing but what's been told
You said I'm running from a name not mine
But I think I'm running for the one that left behind
Every exit sign we pass feels like a lie
I'm searching for a light in these empty skies
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it in your chest?
Is it pounding loud enough yet?
Chorus
Cut through the fading light, take me over into tonight
Leave a trail of cigarette smoke across these dying streets
We don't stop for dawn or darkness anymore
Just watch how far our shadows stretch and roar
I'm chasing every last degree before we lose this fire
I need to know if you can see it burning higher
Bridge
Maybe I don't need an address at all
Maybe the horizon's where we learn to crawl
Every mile marker's just a name on stone
We write our own maps and draw our own road home
Chorus
Cut through the fading light, take me over into tonight
Leave a trail of cigarette smoke across these dying streets
We don't stop for dawn or darkness anymore
Just watch how far our shadows stretch and roar
I'm chasing every last degree before we lose this fire
I need to know if you can see it burning higher
Outro
Fading light, I'll catch you on the other side of dark
