Velvet Ashes

[Intro]
[Verse]
Left the VIP at three
Cracked disco balls I could see
Smudged glitter on the bed
Replaying every word you said
You loved the hollow glow
I'm letting go
[Pre-Chorus]
Neon signs start to fade
Taxi headlights in the dark
I survived the game you played
Now I am finding my spark
[Chorus]
I am stepping in the light
Burning beautiful and bright
No more crying in the car
I am my own superstar
You can keep your plastic crown
You will never pull me down
Watch me fly
High in the sky
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I am shining now
Take a bow
Oh, I am shining now
Take a bow
[Verse]
You liked me sweet
Shivering in the passenger seat
But the velvet rope is torn
Now a brand new queen is born
You are news
I have got nothing left to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
Neon signs start to fade
Taxi headlights in the dark
I survived the game you played
Now I am finding my spark
[Chorus]
I am stepping in the light
Burning beautiful and bright
No more crying in the car
I am my own superstar
You can keep your plastic crown
You will never pull me down
Watch me fly
High in the sky
[Bridge]
I painted my world your shade
Believed every promise you made
Glitter washes off the skin
This is where I finally win
I stand tall
No fear at all
[Chorus]
I am stepping in the light
Burning beautiful and bright
No more crying in the car
I am my own superstar
You can keep your plastic crown
You will never pull me down
Watch me fly
High in the sky
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I am shining now
Take a bow
Oh, I am shining now
Take a bow
[Outro]
