Lighting Up the Sky Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's too damn late now to hear those cries
It's too damn painful to try and walk that line
Again, and why?
No direction, you're on your own
There's so much tension, but never letting go
No, no, I'm never letting go

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm fighting for my life

[Chorus]
Lighting up the sky
Burning through a life
If I had only known
When I was so young
Never taking time
Never take it slow
But would I be alive
Or would I ever know
If I wasn't lighting up the sky?

[Verse 2]
It's growing, changing, it calls my name
Not knowing lately it's what's expected of me
Oh man, it'll never be the same
It burns insidе me
The fire drivеs me, it's all I can do
So let's break on through
[Chorus]
Lighting up the sky
Burning through a life
If I had only known
When I was so young
Never taking time
Never take it slow
Oh, would I be alive
Or would I ever know
If I wasn't lighting up the sky?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Lighting up the sky
Burning through a life
If I had only known
When I was so young
Never taking time
Never take it slow
But would I be alive
Or would I ever know?
It's lighting up the sky

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, it's lighting up the sky

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
