I turn the music up, I got my records on 
I shut the world outside until the [bad word] on 
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone 
I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song 

And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night 
Until monday morning feels another life 
I turn the music up 
I'm on a roll this time 
And heaven is in sight 

I turn the music up, I got my records on 
From underneath [bad word] sing a rebel song 
Don't want to see another generation drop 
I'd rather be [bad word] than a full stop 

Maybe i'm in the black, maybe i'm on my knees 
Maybe i'm in the gap between the two trapezes 
But my heart is beating and my pulses start 
Cathedrals in my heart 

And we saw oh this light i swear you, emerge blinking into 
To tell me it's alright 
As we soar walls, every siren is a symphony 
And every tear's a waterfall 
Is a waterfall 
Oh 
Is a waterfall 
Oh oh oh 
Is a is a waterfall 
Every tear 
Is a waterfall 
Oh oh oh 

So you can hurt, hurt me bad 
But still I'll raise the flag 

Oh 
It was a wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall 
wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall 

Every tear 
Every tear 
Every teardrop is a waterfall 

Every tear 
Every tear 
Every teardrop is a waterfall
