[Intro] (Spoken) Another Monday… Another headline… Same old promises… ⸻ [Verse 1] Grey skies hanging over broken streets Everybody rushing on tired feet The paper says tomorrow’s bright But nobody slept too well last night Every station tells the same old tale Another dream that’s gone off the rails Still we laugh, still we fight Still we’re walking into the night ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] No one’s coming to save us now So we’ll find another way somehow ⸻ [Chorus] We’re running against the tide Shoulder to shoulder, side by side No surrender, no disguise We’re still looking to the skies Running against the tide Hands held high with nowhere to hide Every voice, every street Keeps this city on its feet (Gang vocals) Hey! Hey! Keep moving! Hey! ⸻ [Verse 2] Every doorway has another name Every face has played the game Some give up, some push through Some are waiting just like you The night’s alive with distant trains Hope still runs through cracked windowpanes Every heartbeat keeps the time Every step redraws the line ⸻ [Bridge] We’re more than numbers More than names More than smoke More than flames ⸻ [Final Chorus] We’re running against the tide Nothing left for us to hide Every heart still beats as one Till the morning finally comes (Gang vocals) Running… Running… Against the tide… ⸻ [Outro] (Spoken) Tomorrow starts here…
