lyrics

Stepping over broken glass again, another smashed up second-hand picture-frame
Creeping out the door, she knows the score (same as yesterday)
Seeing her dad always ends in a fight, missed a curfew at a strangers home
She’s tapping out a beat, doin’ drop-offs out on the street
Drifting off to sleep, the song plays out on repeat. Opening her eyes, the melody is no surprise

Long studio days, big stage at night is what my dreams are all made of
Can you see my name in neon lights? Lifting off ground, are you ready player one?

Hand in a pocket to feel the blade, got to protect his reputation
It’s a race to the bottom to a soundtrack of the drill
Looking at a closed world through red eyes, now he’s kicked out of another school
Spitting out the bars from his castle in the sky
Drifting off to sleep, the song plays out on repeat. Opening his eyes, the melody is no surprise

Long studio days, big stage at night is what my dreams are all made of
Can you see my name in neon lights? Lifting off ground, are you ready player one?

Interlude

Long studio days, big stage at night is what my dreams are all made of
Can you see my name in neon lights? Lifting off ground, are you ready player one?
The show countdown is on, the past is never gone, one shot is what this work in the end was all built on.
I can see your name, in all the neon lights. Raise the curtain up it’s done, Icarus into the sun
