Here we are now spinning round the sun
Another day is done
But nothing but a breath here
While the stars are ripping up the sky
What's left for you and I?
We blink and we disappear
Heartbeats, phone calls, are we just animals?
Taking space, marking time
I don't wanna sit on the sidelines
If I'm only a whisper
I'm gonna whisper till my lungs give out
If my life is a flicker
I'm gonna flicker when the lights go down
When the lights go down
I'm gonna flicker, flicker, flicker
When the lights go down
All we get is seconds on the stage
No one's gonna wait
For you and I to finally see
What we have is here to give away
Nothing will remain
Nothing here will stay the same
Heartbeats, phone calls, are we just animals?
Taking space, marking time
I don't wanna sit on the sidelines
If I'm only a whisper
I'm gonna whisper till my lungs give out
If my life is a flicker
I'm gonna flicker when the lights go down
When the lights go down
I'm gonna flicker, flicker, flicker
When the lights go down
(Down down down down down)
When the lights go down
Maybe you'll see me as I take the sky
Break through the ceiling and fly through the night
Maybe I'll fade out in vapor and smoke
But I'm gonna flicker
I'll flicker, I'll flicker
Wherever I go
If I'm only a whisper
I'm gonna whisper till my lungs give out
If my life is a flicker
I'm gonna flicker when the lights go down
If I'm only a whisper
I'm gonna whisper till my lungs give out
If my life is a flicker
I'm gonna flicker when the lights go down
When the lights go down
I'm gonna flicker, flicker, flicker
When the lights go down
(Down down down down down)
When the lights go down
