Kicking Up the Light

Eternal midnight, something is coming for me
I'm out of breath already, haven't even started running
No luck with shut-eye, can't even hear myself think
My head is underwater, is there anybody coming?

Then I hear that beat
It gets loud and repeats
I know what that means
Changing the whole scene

Oh, these long dark nights lose the upper hand
With this rebellious laugh, the way we shake the walls and dance
They play a sad, sad song, we turn it into romance
Can't even tell it's night, because we're kicking up the light

Then the same bad dream, I've been here before
I feel it taking over, so I try to run for cover
Then I see light bleed from underneath the door
Gotta step into the open, run, so I don't get pulled under

Then I hear that beat
It gets loud and repeats
I know what that means
Changing the whole scene

Oh, these long dark nights lose the upper hand
With this rebellious laugh, the way we shake the walls and dance
They play a sad, sad song, we turn it into romance
Can't even tell it's night, because we're kicking up the light

Shake the walls and dance
Just shake the walls and dance
Shake the walls and dance
Just shake the walls and dance

Oh, these long dark nights lose the upper hand
With this rebellious laugh, the way we shake the walls and dance
They play a sad, sad song, we turn it into romance
Can't even tell it's night, because we're kicking up the light

Oh, these long dark nights lose the upper hand
With this rebellious laugh, the way we shake the walls and dance
They play a sad, sad song, we turn it into romance
Can't even tell it's night, because we're kicking up the light

We're kicking up the light
We're kicking up the light
We're kicking up the, kicking up the light
