Lyrics
Intro
SYBAU, hey
Oh-oh, SYBAU
(come on, come on)
Verse
I woke up with the letters on my tongue
A secret on the skyline, like a drum
Syllables that rattle—soft and loud
I’m learning how to pour the lightning out
Caught between the could and the now
Feet on the pavement, but I’m looking up
You and me and a word that won’t let go
We paint the edges, let the colors show
Pre-chorus
Say it slow, say it fast (say it, say it)
Hold the note until the moment lasts
Break the line, bend the sound (bend it)
Turn it inside out, let me feel it round
Chorus
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Call it something that we can’t explain
SYBAU, SYBAU, taste the rain
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Shout it until it echoes in our veins
SYBAU, SYBAU, SYBAU
Verse
Night collapses on a chrome-blue bend
We trade our maps for the unknown again
Laughing with the keys we don’t possess
Finding every fault in tenderness
You put your hand on my crooked line
Write a letter to the lost design
Words rearranged to find a clue
Every syllable is coming back to you
Pre-chorus
Say it soft, say it proud (say it, say it)
Turn the whispers into something loud
Bend the light, fold the sound (fold it)
Make a promise when the world spins round
Chorus
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Call it something that we can’t explain
SYBAU, SYBAU, taste the rain
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Shout it until it echoes in our veins
SYBAU, SYBAU, SYBAU
Bridge
(uh-huh) We keep the letters like a secret code
(heyi ya) Fold it into pockets when we roam
(na-na) Every stumble, every flame we borrow
Turns tomorrow into something gold
(la-la) Say the word and the room ignites
(come on) Every dial set to midnight lights
(oh) If meaning’s just a frame we choose
Then SYBAU is the name we use
Chorus
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Call it something that we can’t explain
SYBAU, SYBAU, taste the rain
SYBAU, SYBAU, lift me higher (oh-oh)
SYBAU, SYBAU, burn like fire (yeah)
Shout it until it echoes in our veins
SYBAU, SYBAU, SYBAU
Outro
SYBAU, keep it close (keep it close)
SYBAU, like a ghost (like a ghost)
SYBAU, SYBAU
