Light it up
(A flash so thin, through a sky so grey)
Look away!
Our faces turned
It's a plea to the ear
(plea to the ear)
It's a walk to my hands
It's a fall to my feet
(fall to my feet)
To find sympathy

Now you're lost
In the dark
And nowhere to be found
But I know you'll be waiting there for us
In the dark
You're nowhere to be found
But I know you'll be waiting there

His fortunes
Our futures at hand
We light
Light up like cities in the night

Light this!
Like a happy scene
It's a set
It's all it takes
To trick our eyes
And fabricate
Honest
Honest goodbyes
Now you're lost
In the dark
And nowhere to be found
But I know you'll be waiting there for us
In the dark
You're nowhere to be found
But our lives light up at times like these

At time, our lives
Light up like cities in the night. (2x)

His fortunes
Our futures at hand
We light
Light up like cities in the night
(2x)
(At times, our lives, light up like cities in the night)
Like rivers
We splinter
You don't have to leave
Run away with me
(At times, our lives, light up like cities in the night)
