Track Lyrics

INTRO
(Ooh-ooh, yeah)
(Ooh-ooh)
"Just breathe."
VERSE
Coffee getting cold while the timeline burns
Numb to every heavy page that turns
Head is full of headlines, a digital haze
Counting down the blue-lit, anxious days
PRE-CHORUS
But the beat in my chest is a stubborn drum
(A stubborn drum)
Telling me the best is yet to come
CHORUS
Got these obsidian butterflies, learning to fly
(Flyin' high)
Painting silver linings on a worried sky
Yeah, these obsidian butterflies, watch 'em ignite
(So bright)
Finding my own rhythm in the fading light
HOOK
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
VERSE
Mirror staring back with a hollowed gaze
Tying my shoes in a heavy haze
Everyone's a winner in the neon game
But I’m just trying to protect my flame
PRE-CHORUS
But the beat in my chest is a stubborn drum
(A stubborn drum)
Telling me the best is yet to come
CHORUS
Got these obsidian butterflies, learning to fly
(Flyin' high)
Painting silver linings on a worried sky
Yeah, these obsidian butterflies, watch 'em ignite
(So bright)
Finding my own rhythm in the fading light
HOOK
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
INSTRUMENTAL
BRIDGE
"Yeah... I'm movin' now. Watch me."
They say it’s heavy, this weight I hold
But my broken pieces are lined with gold
(Lined with gold)
And every crack lets a little more light unfold
CHORUS
Got these obsidian butterflies, learning to fly!
(Flyin' high)
Painting silver linings on a worried sky!
Yeah, these obsidian butterflies, watch 'em ignite!
(So bright)
Finding my own rhythm in the fading light!
HOOK
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
Dancing with my shadows
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
OUTRO
"Just breathe."
"Just breathe."
(Oh-oh-oh)
"Just breathe."
