Thirty-Five

Lights drop low and the bass finds my chest Strangers turn to family, no room for the rest I waited all week just to feel this again One kick drum like a heartbeat, and here we go Hands up if you feel it, hands up if you know The higher that it takes us, the further we go Count it down, count it down Three, two, one, let go And we never come down, never come down Not tonight, not tonight, we own this ground Every light in the dark is a heart we found Say it loud, say it loud, we never come down Oh-oh-oh, never come down Oh-oh-oh, never come down

Some are barely twenty, some are twice that and more But the beat doesn't ask, it just opens the door Same hands in the air, same fire, same sound We were built for this, and we're not backing down Hands up if you feel it, hands up if you know The higher that it takes us, the further we go Count it down, count it down Three, two, one, let go And we never come down, never come down Not tonight, not tonight, we own this ground Every light in the dark is a heart we found Say it loud, say it loud, we never come down When the morning comes I'll carry this out The sun on my face and the bass in my mouth I'll go back to my life, but I'm taking this now And I swear on the light, I will never come down

They said we'd burn it out, said we'd never last the night Look at us still standing with our hands up in the light Every scar, every mile, every time we should have fell We carried it here, and we wear it well So throw it up, throw it up For everyone who made it through Throw it up, throw it up This one's for me and you Look how far, look how far we made it Look how far, we were never gonna break Every wall they built, we came right through it Look how far, look how far we made it Whoa-oh, we made it out Whoa-oh, we made it out

I've got years on these bones and I earned every one Still the first note hits and I'm seventeen and gone They can keep their quiet, they can keep their slowing down I'm alive, I'm awake, and I'm not turning around So throw it up, throw it up For everyone who made it through Throw it up, throw it up This one's for me and you Look how far, look how far we made it Look how far, we were never gonna break Every wall they built, we came right through it Look how far, look how far we made it For the ones who are still here For the ones who didn't make the ride Hands up, hold them high We carry them tonight

Fifteen and the window was easy to climb Left my shoes on the roof so they'd never hear mine Chasing a bassline three towns from my bed With the whole of forever still stuck in my head And the sky went gold, and the sky went gold Made it to morning, made it to school The fire they told me would burn out cold Is the same one that's still pulling me through Give me a hundred more, a hundred more years And I'll dance every one wide awake and right here I was never too old, I was built for this all Give me a hundred more, I swear I'll take them all A hundred more, a hundred more A hundred more, a hundred more

Now the mortgage is paid and the kids are asleep But that kid on the roof, he's still buried in me Same hands in the air when the melody breaks Same heart, same hunger, same beautiful ache And the sky went gold, and the sky went gold Made it through everything, made it here too The fire they told me would burn out cold Is the same one that's carrying you Give me a hundred more, a hundred more years And I'll dance every one wide awake and right here I was never too old, I was built for this all Give me a hundred more, I swear I'll take them all Climb out the window one more time with me We were never leaving, we were always free
