Borrowed Light(The Magical Secrets Hidden Within Their Systems)(beta)

Verse 1

I saw the shelf of golden fruit

Perfect shine that I can't buy

Every year the price goes up

While the color starts to die

Looked in the mirror at my clothes

Fraying seams and faded hue

Something whispers in my chest

That they've been lying to us too

Pre-Chorus

And I can't say it loud

They'd call me a fool

But the cracks are everywhere

Hiding in plain view

Chorus

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

Keep the towers shining bright

While the floor beneath is turning gray

We're dancing on a bankrupt day

Gold and glitter up above

But I can feel the rumbling

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

And I'm not gonna fade tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

I'm not gonna fade tonight

Oh-oh-oh

Gonna light my own fire

Verse 2

They hand me plates of painted bread

And call it luxury for me

But the ones above the clouds

They crack the magic from the sea

Every signature is sealed

Every story rearranged

And I don't know where to start

But I remember how it changed

Pre-Chorus

And I can't say it loud

They'd call me a fool

But the cracks are everywhere

Hiding in plain view

Chorus

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

Keep the towers shining bright

While the floor beneath is turning gray

We're dancing on a bankrupt day

Gold and glitter up above

But I can feel the rumbling

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

And I'm not gonna fade tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

I'm not gonna fade tonight

Oh-oh-oh

Gonna light my own fire

Oh-oh-oh

Bridge

Let the crystals fall around me

I'll collect the broken truth

Every shard becomes a mirror

Every mirror shows the proof

I'll rise up quiet and steady

Past the walls they never move

Oh the truth has always known me

Now I let the spell unloose

Yeah

Chorus

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

Keep the towers shining bright

While the floor beneath is turning gray

We're dancing on a bankrupt day

Gold and glitter up above

But I can feel the rumbling

We built a kingdom on a borrowed light

And I'm not gonna fade tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

I'm not gonna fade tonight

Oh-oh-oh

Gonna light my own fire

End
