Lyrics:

[Intro]
Draped in velvet warnings
Fastened by a brittle seam
Running with the painted children
Caught between a wish and dream

[Verse 1]
Cracked reflections on the pavement
Silver teeth in broken smiles
Polished boots in gutter rain
Bittersweet for miles and miles

[Pre-Chorus]
Rust on every promise
Moonlit traces left behind
Stumbling through the splinters
Of a city redefined

[Chorus]
Spill on midnight avenues
Streetlamps paint your crown
Shadows crawling toward the dawn
Feathered shoes on crooked ground

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh la la la
Ohh la la la

[Verse 2]
Smoke billows from the alleys
Perfumed boys all think they’re kings
Painted faces promise fortunes
Gilded sighs behind the rings

[Pre-Chorus]
Parade the lost and restless
Starlit hands pull at fate
Tangled hearts awaiting morning
On the edge of shadow’s gate

[Chorus]
Spill on midnight avenues
Streetlamps paint your crown
Shadows crawling toward the dawn
Feathered shoes on crooked ground

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh la la la
Ohh la la la

[Bridge]
Neon scars upon your jacket
Tales sewn where secrets hide
Sapphire dreams and tarnished medals
Trading hope for foolish pride

[Verse 3]
Paper crowns in shallow puddles
Sworn allegiance to the bold
Laughter breaking through the thunder
Silver coins that can’t be sold

[Pre-Chorus]
Twist among the thunderclouds
Bleeding colors down the lane
Ready to begin again
Resurrected from the rain

[Chorus]
Spill on midnight avenues
Streetlamps paint your crown
Shadows crawling toward the dawn
Feathered shoes on crooked ground

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh la la la
Ohh la la la
