[Instrumental Intro] [Atmospheric synth building into chiming guitars] [Verse 1] The streets are empty, the shadows long I’ve been singing a forgotten song A static hum in the modern wire I’m looking up, waiting for the fire We built these walls to keep us safe Now we’re suffocating in this place [Pre-Chorus] But I feel the wind, it’s turning around Can you hear the rumble in the ground? [Chorus] Oh, the skies are on fire tonight Burning up the dark, bringing back the light We’re leaving the shadows, breaking the wire Step into the street, the skies are on fire! Oh-oh-oh, the skies are on fire! [Verse 2] I see your face in the amber glow We got a million miles left to go Dust off the ashes, forget the past Nothing built on sorrow is made to last Take my hand, don't look behind We’re leaving the ghosts of the city blind [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I feel the wind, it’s turning around Can you hear the rumble in the ground? [Chorus] Oh, the skies are on fire tonight Burning up the dark, bringing back the light We’re leaving the shadows, breaking the wire Step into the street, the skies are on fire! [Bridge] [Guitar Solo with heavy delay] Let it burn, let it fade We are not afraid! [Chorus] Oh, the skies are on fire tonight Burning up the dark, bringing back the light We’re leaving the shadows, breaking the wire Step into the street, the skies are on fire! [Outro] Yeah, the skies are on fire! [Chiming guitar fades out] [End]
