"The Lightning I"
Fourth place anthem playing
Tonight on a broken radio
Thought we reached the mountaintop
But now we just feel so low
The sky is breaking open
We keep hoping
In the distance we'll see a glow
Lightning light our way
Until the black sky turns back to indigo
We can make it if you
Don't quit on me
I won't quit on you
Don't quit on me
We can make it baby
Please don't quit on me
I won't quit on you
Don't quit on me
I never quit on you
We were born in paradise
Beneath a poisoned sky
Under a bad sign
The micro-age of gemini
And we are still unlearning
Tires are burning
In the middle of Rodeo Drive
You know that we've been beat down
And broken
But now we can testify
We can make it
If you don't quit on me
I won't quit on you
Don't quit on me
We can make it baby
Please don't quit on me
I won't quit on you
Don't quit on me
I never quit on you
It's not up to you
Some you win, some you lose
When the lightning comes
You don't get to choose
Some you win, some you lose
When the lightning comes
One, two, three, four
