[Intro] [soft strings swell] We’re on the edge Breath in my lungs Crowd like an ocean About to jump [Verse 1] Yeah Ticket to the moment in my right hand Heart doing double-time like a hype man I was in the dark Now the lights flash Face to the sky while the doubts crash Run it Every little scar on my wristband Proof that I came back Didn’t just stand Feet to the ground But I feel flight Hands to the rafters I ignite [Pre-Chorus] I was falling through the shadows in my mind Now I’m running on a wire through the sky Every heartbeat saying “this is it” This is it This is it (hey!) [Chorus] Starlight run We’re racing the thunder You and I We’re tearing the night in two If we burn We’re burning in color Every spark in the dark is leading to you Starlight run Don’t you ever look under Only forward Nothing to lose If we fall We’re falling together Every crash Every flash still pulls me to you [Verse 2] Look Sweat on my face like war paint Fear in my chest but it won’t stay I took every “never” that they wrote down Turned it to a banner that I hold now Wave that Feet on the floor like a drumline You in my ear saying “one time” If the world ends when the track hits Let it all fade in the last kiss [Pre-Chorus] I was running from the echoes in my head Now I’m louder than the words they never said Every heartbeat shouting “this is it” This is it This is it (oh yeah) [Chorus] Starlight run We’re racing the thunder You and I We’re tearing the night in two If we burn We’re burning in color Every spark in the dark is leading to you Starlight run Don’t you ever look under Only forward Nothing to lose If we fall We’re falling together Every crash Every flash still pulls me to you [Bridge] [orchestra hits Beat drops out] Hold tight When the ground shakes under your shoes Hold tight Every fault line leads me to you No guide Just the sound of our own truth Just you Just you (woah) [Chorus] Starlight run We’re racing the thunder You and I We’re tearing the night in two If we burn We’re burning in color Every spark in the dark is leading to you Starlight run Don’t you ever look under Only forward Nothing to lose If we fall We’re falling together Every crash Every flash still pulls me to you [Outro] [strings climb Choir oohs] Starlight run Just me and you Starlight run Till the night burns through
