Burn Bright
So give me all you’ve got,I can take itWe walked alone in your city lightsDid you make it?We lit the fire and it’s burning bright
Did you take it?Kissed all the boys in your city lightsDid you make it?Left all the stars in your city nightsCan you fake it?I lost my way in your city lightsClutching me,We stole the fireAnd it’s burning bright
So give me all you’ve got,I can take itWe walked around in your city lights‘Cause it makes me who I amWe lit the fireAnd it’s burning brightNot ashamed of what I amI took the pillsFor these empty nights‘Cause it makes me who I am
They always told me that“You'll never get to heavenWith a life like yours.Well, if you’re lost, little boy,Oh, well, the cameras pull you right back down, yeah.It’s like a chemical burn,I'm peeling off your skin, yeah.And when you see your face,Well, you'll never be the same again, yeah.”
Cause if you just stop breathing,I'll stop, I'll stop my heartI'll stop breathing too
So give me all you’ve got,I can take itWe walked around in your city lights‘Cause it makes me who I amWe lit the fire,And it’s burning brightNot ashamed of what I am,I'd trade the world for your city nights‘Cause it makes me who I amAnd it makes me who I amAnd it makes me who I am
And though I missed the chance for this,I confess that I can’t wait,Until it’s goneNo I mean this every single daySo go if you can’t burn inside‘Cause the world don’t needAnother hopeless causeThough it makes me who I am‘Cause it makes me who I amAnd you made me who I amAnd you made me who I amBe afraid of what I am
I can take itWe walked around in your city lights,‘Cause it makes me who I amI burned it all and I'm doin' fine‘Cause I’ll never fade away,If I steal the fire from your city nights‘Cause it makes me who I amWho I am
