fourth place anthem playing
tonight
on a broken radio
thought WE reached
the mountaintop
but now
WE just feel so low
the sky is breaking open
WE keep hoping
in the distance WE’ll see a glow
lightning light our way
’til the black sky turns back to indigo
WE can make it if you
don’t quit on me
I won’t quit on you
don’t quit on me
WE can make it baby
please don’t quit on me
I won’t quit on you
don’t quit on me
I never quit on you
WE were born in paradise
beneath a poisoned sky
under a bad sign
the micro-age of gemini
and WE are still unlearning
tires are burning
in the middle
of rodeo drive
you know that WE’ve
been beat down
and broken
but now
WE can testify
WE can make it
if you don’t quit on me
I won’t quit on you
don’t quit on me
WE can make it baby
please don’t quit on me
I won’t quit on you
don’t quit on me
I never quit on you
it’s not up to YOU
some you win, some you lose
when the lightning comes
YOU don’t get to choose
some you win
some you lose
when the lightning comes...
I heard the thunder
on a blue sky perfect day
I wonder why
am I the only one?
I heard the thunder
and I feel I’m going under
Jesus Christ
was an only son
a day, a week, a month, a year
a day, a week, a month, a year
every second brings me here
a day, a week, a month, a year
a day, a week, a month, a year
every second brings me here
waiting on the lightning
waiting on the lightning
waiting on the light
what will the light bring?
I heard the thunder and
I thought it was the answer
but I find
I got the question wrong
I was trying to run away
but a voice told me to stay
and put the feeling in a song
a day, a week, a month, a year
a day, a week, a month, a year
every second brings me here
a day, a week, a month, a year
a day, a week, a month, a year
every second brings me here
waiting on the lightning
waiting on the lightning
waiting on the light
what will the light bring?
