[Verse 1]

Coming up slowly, oh, sun over the hill

Daylight still a long time coming

But I know it will

Been under their spell, oh, but we're coming awake

So we'll be rude, we'll be loud

As long as it takes

[Pre-Chorus]

This is why, this is why, we crank the dial to the right

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

[Chorus]

Different colors

We carry each other

Just different colors

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

[Verse 2]

We keep cranking the music up

Driving through our towns

But they don't wanna hear

They want us to turn it down

So come on lovers, come on haters

Tonight we raise the fire

Cause when the people get to dancing

They forget about taking sides

[Pre-Chorus]

This is why, this is why, we crank the dial to the right

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

[Chorus]

Different colors

We carry each other

Just different colors

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

[Bridge]

We're coming awake

Out of your spell, as long as it takes

We're coming awake

We're coming awake

Out of your spell, as long as it takes

We're coming awake

[Pre-Chorus]

This is why, this is why, we crank the dial to the right

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

This is why, this is why, we turn it up all night

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

[Chorus]

Different colors

We carry each other

Just different colors

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right

[Chorus]

Different colors

We carry each other

Just different colors

This is why we're biting the bullet

We know the kids are right
