Stand Up

We were kids

Lookin' out into nothin'

Lookin' for a way to get around the night

We were kids

Holdin' out for a dream

We were born to be wild and free

Or sit alone online

But I don't wanna wait

Sit the other side of these flood lights

Dreaming up a way to escape

Anyone around

Give me mission control give me a sound on the radio

Stand up and be counted

Before we slip away out here

Before we slip away slip away

Don't ever doubt it

Even if we're surrounded

Don't wanna slip away slip away

Slip away

Slip away

We were kings

We were queens of an empire

We were made out on the streets

We were all

So if we're gonna break

If we're gonna tumble in a gunfight

Promise we'll be side by side

Say you'll be there when the school gets closed

Say you'll be there when the rest don't show

Stand up and be counted

Before we slip away out here

Before we slip away slip away

Don't ever doubt it

Even if we're surrounded

Don't wanna slip away slip away

High on hope and high on fear

We were heartbreak of the year

We were stackin' up to fall

We were summers in the street

We were sunlight through the trees

We were born for silver screens

We were whispers in the dark

We were sleeping under stars

Say all of this is ours

We were roller coaster screams

'Til our hearts burst at the seams

We're not gonna let it all

Stand up and be counted

Before we slip away out here

Before we slip away slip away
