Burn It Bright

Lyrics

Verse 1
Late bus
Same road
Same dust
Headphones on
World off
Still stuck in this small town rush

Scuffed shoes
Dreams on the back of a notebook
Drawn wings
Ripped at the edges
But I still look
I still look

Chorus
I’m gonna burn it bright
Burn it brighter (hey!)
Till the sky can’t hold this fire in my eyes
Kick down every doubt
Every liar
Watch me rise
Watch me rise
I’m gonna scream my name a little higher
If the world feels cold
I’ll make it ignite
You can try to hide my spark in the quiet
But I burn
I burn it bright

Verse 2
Late night
Roof of the old arcade
Phone light on our faces
Swear we won’t fade
Won’t fade

You say
“Someday
They’ll sing along our words”
So we shout them to the traffic
Till our voices start to blur (oh yeah)

Chorus
I’m gonna burn it bright
Burn it brighter (hey!)
Till the sky can’t hold this fire in my eyes
Kick down every doubt
Every liar
Watch me rise
Watch me rise
I’m gonna scream my name a little higher
If the world feels cold
I’ll make it ignite
You can try to hide my spark in the quiet
But I burn
I burn it bright

Bridge
Hands up
One spark
Chain reaction
Heartbeats crash in the dark
Turn fear into action

If I fall
Then I fall forward
Scars like silver on my skin
This time I’m my own hero
Watch the ending begin (woah)

Chorus
I’m gonna burn it bright
Burn it brighter (hey!)
Till the sky can’t hold this fire in my eyes
Kick down every doubt
Every liar
Watch me rise
Watch me rise
I’m gonna scream my name a little higher
If the world feels cold
I’ll make it ignite
You can try to hide my spark in the quiet
But I burn
I burn it bright
