VERSE
The night is coming
And we tried to end it tenderly
The fight is over
so we said goodbye to yesterday

And somehow we both got by
before bursting into stars
You couldn’t even promise to wipe them all away
Said ‘ It’s good to cry’

PRE-CHORUS
There’s something (there’s something)
Over the horizon (over the horizon)
A perfect (a perfect)
Line that’s hand-drawn (line that’s hand-drawn)
By tonight’s (tonight’s)
Sunset (sunset)
Silver lining (silver lining)
A halo (a halo)

CHORUS
So lift your head up kid
I know you didn’t mean it all
I’m proud of all we did
I guess we’re both to blame for the fall
Of filling up on dreaming
And daring to believe in
Something that was only ever false
So lift your head up kid
I know you didn’t mean it at all

VERSE
Maybe, by night
You can blind them all
The daylight gets you most of all
You said only want the shadows

PRE-CHORUS 2
Like that pink rose (like that pink rose)
In December (in December)
Waiting to thaw (waiting to thaw)
I’ll remember (I’ll remember)
Tonight’s (tonight’s)
Sunset (sunset)
Silver lining (silver lining)
A halo (a halo)

CHORUS
So lift your head up kid
I know you didn’t mean it all
I’m proud of all we did
I guess we’re both to blame for the fall
Of filling up on dreaming
And daring to believe in
Something that was only ever false
So lift your head up kid
I know you didn’t mean it at all
