Lightning in a Bottle

Learning to fly
And falling from blue skies
Gravity pulls you down
From so high

You were so close
You could almost taste it
The dream you've been chasing
For all of your life

But sometimes
The world changes in front of our eyes
And every door swinging open wide
So you wanna be larger than life?
You wanna walk in the spotlight?

All we are is lightning in a bottle
We're flashing like gold
Rushing like chemicals
All we are is spinning out of control
It's time we come out of the shadows

Why do we hide?
The light on the inside
Is brighter than sunshine
And in your eyes

And one of these days
You're gonna break from your cage
Standing up on a stage
All of your fears start to drift away

The world changes in front of our eyes
Every door swinging open wide
So you wanna be larger than life?
You wanna walk in the spotlight?

All we are is lightning in a bottle
We're flashing like gold
Rushing like chemicals
All we are is spinning out of control
It's time we come out of the shadows

It's life as we know it
We're broken, we're chosen
We wouldn't have it any other way
And sometimes
We're silent and frozen
We're lost in the moment
The music can take you away
Take you away

(Learning to fly and falling from blue skies)
(Learning to fly and falling from blue skies)

All we are is lightning in a bottle
We're flashing like silver and gold
All we are is spinning out of control
It's time we learned to let go

It's life as we know it
We're broken, we're chosen
We wouldn't have it any other way
And sometimes
We're silent and frozen
We're lost in the moment
The music can take you away
Take you away, take you away
Can take you away, take you away
