[Verse] Why you holding my heart in chains Why’s my light a threat to your pain You drag us down to where shadows creep But all we wanted was a dream to keep [Pre-Chorus] Your whispers linger like broken glass Cracks in the mirror they cut so fast Why do you shatter what you can’t own We just wanted a place of our own [Chorus] We just want to be stars on the avenue Shining bright while the world turns blue Why you pulling us down to your night Can’t you feel the pull of our light [Verse 2] Your shadow stretches across our skies Hiding hope behind your lies The darker it gets the harder we burn But do you get joy watching us churn [Chorus] We just want to be stars on the avenue Shining bright while the world turns blue Why you pulling us down to your night Can’t you feel the pull of our light [Bridge] You see us reaching but clip our wings Are you scared of the song we sing We’ll keep on fighting through your gloom Our glow will pierce your consuming doom
