I turn the music up [Repeat:x23]

I turn the music up I got my records on
I shut the world outside 
Until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight 
Maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favorite 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 ?
 
I turn the music up I got my records on
From underneath the rubble sing a rebel song
Don't want to see another generation drop
I'd rather be a comma 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 still my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart
 
As we soar walls 
every siren is a symphony
And every tear's a waterfall
Is a waterfall

Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall

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

Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall (I turn the music up, I turn the music up) 
Is a waterfall (I turn the music up, I turn the music up) 

I turn the music up 

The music [Repeat:x63]
