Stand Up
James Bay
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
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) Slip away (slip) We were Kings We were Queens of an empire We were made out on the streets We were all the same So, if we're gonna break If we're gonna tumble in a gunfight Promise we'll be side by side Say you'll 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 rollercoaster screams 'Til our hearts burst at the seams We're not gonna let it all out of control Stand up and be counted Before we slip away out here Before we slip away, slip away
