[singer A] [Intro - solo erhu over a low drone, thin and sorrowful] [Section 1 - guzheng enters with sparse plucked phrases] [Section 2 - dizi flute floats above, distant and airy] [transition] [singer B] Neon city, midnight calling my name Heartbeat racing like a runaway train I've been waiting for a spark in the dark Now I'm ready, let it burn, let it start [Pre-Chorus: rising, uplifting, vocal climbing, drum fill] Hands up high, feel the fire inside Don't look back, it's the time to fly [Chorus: explosive, gorgeous, full major key, rich layered backing vocals] Burn it up, never stop tonight Dancing in the flashing light Hold me close and we'll never fall Feel the rhythm take it all Burn it up, shining like a star Doesn't matter who we are Run with me into the night Never stop, hands to the sky [transition] [singer A] [Build - guzheng tremolo rising, tension building, no drums] [Tempo shift - the pulse doubles, guzheng running fast] [Peak - erhu wails over the racing guzheng] [transition] [singer B] Faster, faster, electric desire Every second we're climbing higher No more shadows, no more goodbye Tonight we own the neon sky [Pre-Chorus: rising, uplifting, vocal climbing] Hands up high, feel the fire inside Don't look back, it's the time to fly [Chorus: explosive, gorgeous, full major key, rich layered backing vocals] Burn it up, never stop tonight Dancing in the flashing light Hold me close and we'll never fall Feel the rhythm take it all Burn it up, shining like a star Doesn't matter who we are Run with me into the night Never stop, hands to the sky [transition] [singer A] [Outro - single erhu note fading into reverb] [singer B] When the morning comes we'll still be alive Keep the fire burning, keep it all night [Key change up, final chorus: maximum energy, triumphant, huge rich backing vocals] Burn it up, never stop tonight Dancing in the flashing light Hold me close and we'll never fall Feel the rhythm take it all Burn it up, shining like a star Doesn't matter who we are Run with me into the night Never stop, hands to the sky [Outro: triumphant arpeggio, bright vocal ad-libs, fading out]
