"Kicking Up The Light" lyrics

"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 the 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
