Yea-aa-aa-ah!
Face down with the LA curbside endings with the ones and zeroes
Downtown was the perfect place to hide.
First star that I saw last night was a headlight in the manmade sky
But Manmade never made our stars collide, collide
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain, Were awakening.
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain, Were awakening.
Maybe its called ambition, youve been talking in your sleep,
About a dream, were awakening.
Bridge 1 same as intro but repeat 1x.
(same as 1)
Last week saw me living for nothing but deadlines, in my deadbeat sky but,
This town doesnt look the same tonight.
These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere, and in all mylife I,
don't know if i've ever felt so alive, alive.
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain, Were awakening.
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain, Were awakening.
Maybe its called ambition, youve been talking in your sleep,
About a dream, were awakening.
Iwanna wake up kicking and screaming, I wanna wake up kicking and screaming
I wanna heart that I know is beating, is beating, Im bleeding
I wanna wake up kicking and screaming, I wanna live like I know what I'm leaving
I wanna heart that I know is beating, I wanna heart that I know is beating
I wanna heart that I know is beating
It's beating, It's beating, It's beating I'm bleeding.
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain, Were awakening.
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain, Were awakening.
Maybe its called ambition, youve been talking in your sleep,
About a dream, were awakening.
same as intro but repeat 4x
