Chasing Light

Synthpop Modern Synthpop Anthemic Synthpop Atmospheric Synthpop

"Chasing Light" is about what it costs to keep moving toward a life you hope will be worth it. I wrote it from that place where you know happiness is never guaranteed, but standing still feels worse. The song holds that mix of fear and faith that comes with making a choice and living with it. There is heartbreak in it, but there is also grit. It is really about accepting that life keeps swinging between collapse and renewal, and choosing to go forward anyway.

// Lyrics

Intro

  1. Hmmmmmm

Chorus 1

  1. And I'm still running for the daylight
  2. One step closer another step colder
  3. Cause the walls close in but I won't go blind
  4. And I'm running to the glow on the other side

Breakdown

  1. For the daylight
  2. Aaaaahhh...

Verse 1

  1. I tasted freedom, I knew it was dangerous
  2. Afraid of the joy and of all that it could mean
  3. But I stayed and I broke, oh I burned through the answers
  4. In the wreck I was looking for somewhere to go

Chorus 2

  1. And I'm still running for the daylight
  2. One step closer another step colder
  3. Cause the walls close in but I won't go blind
  4. And I'm running to the glow on the other side

Breakdown

  1. For the daylight
  2. Aaaaahhh...

Bridge

  1. One step closer another step colder
  2. But I stayed and I broke, oh I burned through the answers
  3. In the wreck I was looking for somewhere to go

Verse 2

  1. Chasing light, you don't feel the world
  2. Moving past you from that isolation point
  3. So pour another, numb the aching
  4. Fake a smile, but your hands are shaking

Chorus 3

  1. And I'm still running for the daylight
  2. One step closer another step colder
  3. Cause the walls close in but I won't go blind
  4. And I'm running to the glow on the other side

Bridge (Instrumental)

  1. For the daylight
  2. Hmmmm....

Verse 2 Reprise

  1. Chasing light, you don't feel the world
  2. Moving past you from that isolation point
  3. So pour another, numb the aching
  4. So fake a smile, but your hands are shaking

Outro

  1. Chasing light, and I could leave this heart wide open...

And I'm still running for the daylight One step closer another step colder Cause the walls close in but I won't go blind And I'm running to the glow on the other side
