lyrics

Verse:
Hello lights, we’ve come to stay,
lonely kids who changed our names,
We ran away to sing a song,
we lay awake all night.

Pre-Chorus:
They call me triple seven,
A winner back home,
On to something better,
Wherever I’d go,
I'm moving to the strip,
in neon and gold,
Tell me on the blacktop,
I’m never alone

Chorus:
We’re color trapped, so throw out the key,
to trip in our world, when you're snapped by reality,
Alone in the dark, now we play in the street.
We’re children at heart but now we’ll say what the world is,
Our colors are swirling, whenever we run.

Verse:
All we have is you and me
We feel so innocent when we dream
We're accused of many things,
But we commit no crime.

Pre-Chorus:
Feel it on my wrist, electric guitar
A velvet eclipse when you sing from your heart.
Run and hopscotch, and turn on a dime
You rescue me from darkness every time.

Chorus:
We’re color trapped, so throw out the key,
to trip in our world, when you're snapped by reality,
Alone in the dark, now we play in the street.
We’re children at heart but now we’ll say what the world is,
Our colors are swirling, whenever we run.

Pre-Chorus:
Call me triple seven,
my area code
on the angel hotline, wait for the tone
We're moving to the strip, to LA we go
We’ll live forever, remembered I know.

Chorus:
We’re color trapped, so throw out the key,
to trip in our world, when you're snapped by reality,
Alone in the dark, now we play in the street.
We’re children at heart, but now we'll say what the world is
Our colors are swirling

We’re color trapped, so throw out the key,
to trip in our world, when you're snapped by reality,
We wander afar now we pay for our dreams
We follow our star and now we'll say what the world is,
Our colors are swirling, whenever we run.
