Exit Signs

[Intro – Vocal A] Red lights, cold streets Running where the shadows meet No sleep, heartbeat Counting every crack beneath my feet [Verse 1 – Vocal A] I woke up with the sound of sirens Ringing through my bedroom wall Another day, another riot In a place too proud to fall I left my jacket by the doorway With a note I never sent Said I’m tired of being sorry For the time I never spent [Verse 2 – Vocal B] I keep chasing all the exits But they lead me back to here Every map I hold is burning Every road just disappears Maybe I was built for leaving Maybe I was made to run But the further I keep moving The heavier I become [Pre-Chorus – Vocal A & B] And I don’t wanna fade out quietly I don’t wanna drown politely Tell me there’s a way to feel alive [Chorus – Vocal C] Show me the exit signs Before I lose my mind I’ve been screaming at the ceiling Just to know I’m still alive Pull me through the night Before I cross the line I don’t need another reason I just need a way to find The exit signs [Post-Chorus – All] Oh-oh, oh-oh I just need a way to find Oh-oh, oh-oh The exit signs [Verse 3 – Vocal B] There’s a picture in my pocket Of a younger version me He was smiling like the future Was an easy thing to see [Verse 4 – Vocal A] Now I’m older, not much wiser Still a spark inside the rain Still pretending I’m a fighter When I’m running from the pain [Bridge – Vocal C, quiet spoken-sung then rising] I’m not broken beyond repair I’m just tired of standing there Watching every dream turn grey While I let the years decay [Vocal A] So light it up Let it burn Let me crash Let me learn [Vocal B] If I fall If I break At least I’ll know I tried to change [Final Chorus – All, Vocal C lead] Show me the exit signs Before I lose my mind I’ve been screaming at the ceiling Just to know I’m still alive Pull me through the night Before I cross the line I don’t need another reason I just need a way to find The exit signs [Outro – Vocal A & B] Red lights, cold streets Running where the shadows meet [Vocal C soft] I just need a way to find The exit signs
