[Intro]
S-L-A-Y

[Verse 1]
Welcome to the part of the show
Where we fake it 'til we make it, oh
Livin' in the shadow is cold
Want the hot light of the spotlight

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I close my eyes and dream in technicolor
I'm not the only one (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm reaching for the glory from the gutter
Let's them how it's done

[Chorus]
Come on everybody, let's go
We can do anything
It don't matter what people think
We'll keep slaying it every single time
Come on everybody, let's go
Baby, we're bright as gold
It don't matter what you've been told
We'll keep slayin' it 'til the day we die
Come on everybody let's
S-L-A-Y
S-L-A-Y
[Verse 2]
Once upon a time you believed
In tomorrow, in the cosmos, oh
But then you didn't land on your feet
In the jungle, better hustle

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I close my eyes and dream in technicolor
I'm not the only one (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm reaching for the glory from the gutter
Let's show them how it's done

[Chorus]
Come on everybody, let's go
We can do anything
It don't matter what people think
We'll keep slaying it every single time
Come on everybody, let's go
Baby, we're bright as gold
It don't matter what you've been told
We'll keep slayin' it 'til the day we die
Come on everybody let's
S-L-A-Y
S-L-A-Y

[Bridge]
Tonight, you and I
We can shine like razor blades
Light 'em up and blow 'em away
That's right, you and I
We'll forget our yesterday's
Light 'em up and blow 'em away, oh I
[Chorus]
We can do anything
It don't matter what people think
We'll keep slaying it every single time (Yeah)
Come on everybody, let's go
Baby, we're bright as gold
It don't matter what you've been told (Oh)
We'll keep slayin' it 'til the day we die
(We'll keep slayin' it 'til the day we die)

[Refrain]
Tonight, you and I (Oh)
We can shine like razor blades (Oh, oh)
Light 'em up and blow 'em away (Light 'em up and blow 'em away)
That's right, you and I (S-L-A-Y)
We'll forget our yesterdays (S-L-A-Y)
Light 'em up and blow 'em away, oh I

[Outro]
S-L-A-Y
