SKYLINE PARADISE
[Verse 1] Red eyes Dashboard glow on my hands Long drive Empty exits Open land You say "Turn it up Don’t look back" White lines Pull us further off the map [Pre-Chorus] Every mile A little faster Every breath A little less fear All the ghosts in the rearview scatter When you lean in and say "we’re almost here" [Chorus] We’re in a Skyline overdrive Racing past the morning light Heartbeats chasing satellites You and I You and I Burning through the blue and gray Nothing’s gonna make us brake Hold me ‘til the stars collide Skyline overdrive (oh oh) [Verse 2] Cold air Hanging open out your door Wild hair Tangled up You ask for more Those shoes On my dash like it’s your throne We choose Every wrong turn as our own [Pre-Chorus] Every mile A little faster Every breath A little less fear If the road falls out beneath us We’ll just float and disappear [Chorus] We’re in a Skyline overdrive Racing past the morning light Heartbeats chasing satellites You and I You and I Burning through the blue and gray Nothing’s gonna make us brake Hold me ‘til the stars collide Skyline overdrive (yeah, yeah) [Bridge] Lights blur We’re crossing the line Free fall Your hand into mine If this is the edge of the night Let it break Let it break Let it shine (hey!) [Chorus] We’re in a Skyline overdrive Racing past the morning light [Verse 1] Where you are In a skyline paradise Coffee on the windowsill Morning in your eyes We’re broke We’re bright Laughing at the traffic below Dreams on the drywall Names in a yellowed photo [Chorus] We’re working our way up From this little high-rise heaven Oh the glories we will win Every door we’re kicking open This feeling’s taking over Every heartbeat saying “try” Where you are I’m in (oh paradise) [Verse 2] Floor ten view But it feels like twenty-four Hand-drawn plans Scattered on the kitchen floor You say “one day” I say “why not tonight?” Turn our doubts to paper planes Throw them into the light [Chorus] We’re working our way up From this little high-rise heaven Oh the glories we will win Every door we’re kicking open This feeling’s taking over Every heartbeat saying “try” Where you are I’m in (oh paradise) [Bridge] If the elevator breaks We’ll take the stairs Step by stubborn step Till the thin air scares If the view ever fades We’ll paint the sky You and me Marker lines Rewriting the height [Chorus] We’re working our way up From this little high-rise heaven Oh the glories we will win Every door we’re kicking open This feeling’s taking over Every heartbeat saying “try” Where you are I’m in (oh paradise)
