Newt Box Hero

Verse 1

Smoke in the alley, neon in the rain

Old guitar screaming from a downtown train

Kid in the corner with a fire in his eyes

Dreaming of thunder underneath the city lights

Pre-Chorus

Every cracked speaker calling out his name

Every late night burning like a flame

Chorus

I’m the newt box hero

Raised by the sound of the night

Newt box hero

Chasing that electric light

From the shadows to the spotlight glow

Everybody’s gonna know

I’m the newt box hero

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, turn it louder now

Oh-oh-oh, never backing down

Verse 2

Cheap black leather and a heart full of scars

Writing revolution on the walls of bars

Crowd starts moving when the amps ignite

Hands in the air like a riot tonight

Pre-Chorus

Every broken dream turned into a song

Every hard road made me strong

Chorus

I’m the newt box hero

Raised by the sound of the night

Newt box hero

Running with the city lights

From the shadows to the spotlight glow

Everybody’s gonna know

I’m the newt box hero

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, hear the engines roar

Oh-oh-oh, always wanting more

Bridge

Now the whole crowd's screaming

My name through the haze

What started in darkness

Is setting the stage ablaze

No turning back now

No fading away

The fire keeps calling me

Night after day

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

Gold records shining but I still remember

Cold street nights in the dead of December

One loud heartbeat changed my fate

Now the crowd keeps chanting while the walls all shake

Pre-Chorus

Every young soul looking for a sign

Can feel this pulse tonight

Chorus

I’m the newt box hero

Raised by the sound of the night

Newt box hero

Blazing like a satellite

From the shadows to the spotlight glow

Everybody’s gonna know

I’m the newt box hero

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, let the speakers blow

Oh-oh-oh, I was born for the show
