Light It Up Lyrics

Cover the mile, turn the page

Whoever wants the gilded stage

Light it up in the night

Feeling a kind of blue

Waiting to find my way at 16

I didn't ask for truth

Fill my eyes with starry dreams

Circle the wishing well and

You reach right where you began

On your own again

As the lights keep closing in

Cover the mile, turn the page

Whoever wants the gilded stage

Light it up in the night

The glint in their eyes

Is how I'm going to earn my keep

Light it up in the night

Feeling the eyes on me

I hear the echoes all around

Living the starry dream

Hands go up and the sun comes down

Finding what's really real

To see you've reached right where you began

On your own again

As the sounds keep closing in

Cover the mile, turn the page

Whoever wants the gilded stage

Light it up in the night

The glint in their eyes

Is how I'm going to earn my keep

Light it up in the night

When there's a growing fear

When there's a call to hear

The lights will bind you to the dream

Light it up!

Cover the mile, turn the page

Whoever wants the gilded stage

Light it up in the night

The glint in their eyes

Is how I'm going to earn my keep

Light it up in the night
