Glowing - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Never let go of the way that a small town feels when the sun's down

A gentle glow from the lamp posts lining the streets

'Cause I didn't know that the grey in the air after a heavy rain

Could kill off stars so easily, a flicker dying under the sheets

It's alright to hold onto what feels safe

But it just feels so right to stay out when it gets late

As long as you can keep on

Glowing

All this light is overflowing

Radiating over you, just like the moon

Lit by the sun of someone else's noon

It's a hell of a way to start

Whenever you tend to depend on that funny feeling

In your gut when you're young (So young)

So you run through thе dark

Careless of what's hiding around the bеnd, the way

You don't seem to feel anything

Putting matches out on your tongue

Ignite, you're wading through the haze

While I stay up each night to make sense of empty space

So tell me how you keep on

Glowing

All this light is overflowing

Radiating over you, just like the moon

Lit by the sun of someone else's noon

If I could let go of the need to stay closely behind when you're near me

I'd gently glow in my own way and light up the street

I wish I could show that the brighter you shine, the darker it seems for

Everything else surrounding you, just far enough out of reach

So tell me how you keep on

Glowing

All this light is overflowing

Radiating over you, just like the moon

Lit by the sun of someone else's noon
