Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wallow in the mire and then you're at the pinnacle
A fabricated smile so wide that it hurts
Your composure is so brittle
And you hold yourself so well
Inside, you cling to pieces of a broken carousel
Tonight, these streets are heaving
With young hearts on the chase
We'll have this place on lockdown
It's here for you to taste
[Verse 2]
The night is ours
You're wide awake, and I'm the same
Darling, you're not the only one
Oh, wide awake, and I'm the same
Darling, you're not the only one
Only one, only one
[Verse 3]
Maybe we were born and raised too cynical
In the wake of a miracle we'd never believe
You impersonate the seasons
Your gold autumnal haze
But something dies inside you when winter rears its face
Tonight, these streets are heaving
With young hearts on the chase
We'll have this place on lockdown
It's here for you to taste
[Verse 4]
The night is ours
You're wide awake, and I'm the same
Darling, you're not the only one
Oh, wide awake, and I'm the same
Darling, you're not the only one
Only one, only one
