[Intro] Five twenty-three Sky's changing color Didn't notice until now [Verse 1] Cold concrete under my boots Last few drops of purple juice City blinking far below One by one the lights let go Night wind caught inside my hair Nobody knows I'm sitting here No sirens close No voices near Just morning slowly getting clear Phone in my pocket Screen still dark For once So is my head [Pre-Chorus] Blue turns grey Grey turns gold Maybe I stayed out Long enough Nothing fixed Nothing gone Just quieter Than it was before [Chorus] First light Across the rooftops Night finally loosens its hands No rush No destination Just watching the skyline change First light On tired eyes All that noise is somewhere behind Maybe I don't need an answer Maybe quiet Was enough tonight [Verse 2] One message waiting since before Didn't read it underground Now the sunrise hits the screen And your name is glowing there "Come home when you're ready." That's all No questions No where-have-you-been No reason I have to explain Damn you Made me smile again [Pre-Chorus] Wind gets warm Stars disappear Morning traffic Starts somewhere Whole city waking Floor by floor And suddenly I don't need this roof anymore [Chorus] First light Across the rooftops Night finally loosens its hands No rush No destination Just watching the skyline change First light On tired eyes All that noise is somewhere behind Maybe I don't need an answer Maybe quiet Was enough tonight [Bridge] Wasn't running from you Wasn't running from home Just needed somewhere That belonged to no one A graveyard A station A rooftop sky Three hours alone And somehow I remember why I like coming back [Final Chorus] First light Across the rooftops Sun catching purple in my hair Cold drink empty Phone in my hand And I know somebody's waiting there First light No more hiding Nothing heavy enough to stay One last look At the waking city Then I turn And walk away [Outro] Five thirty-eight Morning. Yeah I'm coming home.
