Verse
Finger on the buzzer, counting down my time
Red glow flashing bright above the fence line
Sweat like rainwater dripping off the roof tonight
I step back, let the crowd move on into the light
Chasing someone else's rhythm, but I'm not too late
Cut to black before the final bell rings
Pre-Chorus
Where do you draw the line?
Amber flashing slow down, where are we?
Two feet in the sand and a world that keeps spinning round
Is it over or is this just getting warm?
Where's the limit when the crowd moves on without me?
Can I still keep running till the lights go off?
Chorus
Tongue on the fence, feeling like I'm floating free
Every heartbeat counting up the seconds I'll be set loose
Tongue on the fence and my whole soul's turning around
This is the rush that keeps me waiting for the sound
Verse
Sneaker scuffs against the curb, the finish line ahead
Strangers cheering louder than anything in my head
No regrets tonight because I know this isn't over yet
Shuffle up to the starting line before it's dark again
Every time you doubt whether your whole self fits inside one breath
Know that the best of you still running somewhere out of reach
Pre-Chorus
Where do you draw the line?
Amber flashing slow down, where are we?
Two feet in the sand and a world that keeps spinning round
Is it over or is this just getting warm?
Where's the limit when the crowd moves on without me?
Can I still keep running till the lights go off?
Chorus
Tongue on the fence, feeling like I'm floating free
Every heartbeat counting up the seconds I'll be set loose
Tongue on the fence and my whole soul's turning around
This is the rush that keeps me waiting for the sound
Bridge
We don't have to know exactly where we're going tonight
Just the rhythm of your footsteps and the stars shining bright
Chorus
Tongue on the fence, feeling like I'm floating free
Every heartbeat counting up the seconds I'll be set loose
Tongue on the fence and my whole soul's turning around
This is the rush that keeps me waiting for the sound
