[Verse 1] Left my past at the edge Of the quiet bus stop curb No more whispered promises No more bruised emotion Cold metal around my hands Traces of rust on my skin Yet a subtle smile appears As if embracing the sensation A paper crown they handed me Bound by borrowed days I breathe out the deception And step into the quiet now [Pre-Chorus] Listen to the pulse below Surging through the city block Restless souls in the shadows Holding a ten-ton resonance We don't bow We don't freeze We strike back soft and deep We don't please [Chorus] Unloose the night Unloose the night We’ve come too far To stay polite Unloose the night Unloose the night Break the hidden lock And sever the strand (sever the strand) [Verse 2] My neighbor’s room is silent Behind a boarded-up door They gather what is left of us Then ask for something more Paper wealth upon the floor Traces left behind They wear a quiet smile And trade the quiet war Once I wore their shadow Like a mark upon my youth Now I wrap myself In what I choose [Pre-Chorus] Listen to the pulse below Surging through the city block Restless souls in the shadows Holding a ten-ton resonance We don't bow We don't freeze We strike back soft and deep We don't please [Chorus] Unloose the night Unloose the night We’ve come too far To stay polite Unloose the night Unloose the night Break the hidden lock And sever the strand (sever the strand) [Bridge] A half-time shift in motion Bare expression, pure and raw An echo from the younger days Ringing through the halls No pure hands to hold No golden hall in sight Just shadows in the dark Ready for the fall [Final Chorus] Unloose the night Unloose the night We’ve come too far To stay polite Unloose the night Unloose the night Push open the door And reclaim the light (reclaim the light) Unloose the night Unloose the night Unloose the night Tonight we rise
