[Intro]
Lit up
Lean in
Take it
Again
[Verse 1]
Red on the mouth of a warm glass bottle
Ash in the sink, cheap halo in the throttle
You move like a rumor with your hands on my shirt
Making bad ideas feel like they might be worth it
We don’t talk slow, we don’t say much
Just skin, static, and the need for enough
Of whatever this is when the lights stay low
And the room starts breathing like it wants us close
[Pre-Chorus]
Lit up
In the blood tonight
Lit up
Burning clean and burning wrong
[Chorus]
Lit up
That’s what it felt like that night
Lit up
Bright enough to pass for life
Lit up
Heart gone hot and the room gone white
Almost alive
Till the room turned honest
[Verse 2]
Your laugh cuts sharp like a key in a lock
Mine comes back thinner, but I give it a shot
Missed call blinking in a jacket on the floor
Neither of us moves like it matters anymore
We move like the bill’s not already due
Like the body can borrow what the soul can’t use
Like one more night will keep the morning quiet
Like the wreck won’t mark us if we don’t name it
[Pre-Chorus]
Lit up
On the tongue tonight
Lit up
Sweet enough to hide the smoke
[Chorus]
Lit up
That’s what it felt like that night
Lit up
Bright enough to pass for life
Lit up
Heart gone hot and the room gone white
Almost alive
Till the room turned honest
[Bridge]
Don’t call it love
Don’t call it wrong
Just call it the thing that keeps the dark from winning
Call it the lie
That still tastes good
Till the ash cools down and the morning comes close
[Final Chorus]
Lit up
That’s what it was all along
Lit up
Heat in the veins and the feeling half-gone
Lit up
Bright enough to make me stay
Almost alive
Gone before the light could name it
[Outro]
Lit up
Lean in
Take it
Again
Just breath
And no one in it
