Lightning Lyrics by State Champs

Living Proof

2018

[Verse 1: Derek DiScanio]
Did we ever know where we were going?
Everytime I turn around, just another ghost
Misreading every feeling

You would think I had the worst intentions
It was all fun and games but you'll never know
In clear view I could hear you

[Pre-Chorus 1: Derek DiScanio]
On the phone
But was it you alone?
I was trying to find a reason why I'd ever let it grow
(But she said)

[Chorus 1: Derek DiScanio]
Who knew we were lightning?
I saw a spark before we heard any sound to follow

[Verse 2: Derek DiScanio]
I think it's time I let my eyes stay open
I'm missing out on the point if they're always closed
Switch focus, now I know

[Pre-Chorus 2: Derek DiScanio]
This is worth my time
So can you read my mind?
It says I'm tryna find a reason why to leave it all behind

[Breakdown: Ryan Scott Graham, Derek DiScanio]
So I'm out on a limb now
The path that we've been down
I fought through but somehow
I hear you say

[Chorus 2: Derek DiScanio]
Who knew we were lightning?
I saw a spark before we heard any sound
If you look my way instead
We can make this permanent
Is there something waiting to be found?
Who knew we were?

[Bridge: Derek DiScanio]
Now it's all making sense
In time we would find it
I was caught in suspense
But with you I'm reminded
It's real now

[Chorus 2: Derek DiScanio]
Who knew we were lightning?
I saw a spark before we heard any sound to follow

Who knew we were lightning?
I saw a spark before we heard any sound
If you look my way instead
We can make this permanent
Is there something waiting to be found?
There's still something waiting to be found
Who knew we were?
