Lyrics

[Intro]
And the light kept coming

[Verse 1]
Twenty-three, a brick against the door
Tar still soft from the afternoon before
I had eight words in a warm can in my hand
Shaking so hard I could barely make them land

[Build]

[Chorus]
I said it out loud and the light kept coming
The pigeons lifted and the city kept humming
Turning pink like it didn't even care
I said it out loud and I'm still standing here

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
You said no so softly I could breathe
Then we sat there watching the streetlights bleed
And nothing broke, the traffic didn't stop
I just felt my whole chest let go on that rooftop

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
I said it out loud and the light kept coming
The pigeons lifted and the city kept humming
Turning pink like it didn't even care
I said it out loud and I'm still standing here

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
Twelve years on, same door, same brick
Same warm can, and my hands are still
I thought this roof was where it all went wrong
It's where the fear died and I kept going

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
I said it out loud and the light kept coming
And I'm still here
