Boyinaband
Limelight
[Verse 1: Boyinaband]
I started the story without a connection
Narrated my path with a lack of direction, but
Circumstance made that path collide with yours
Your life saved mine through sliding doors
You see, it's confession time
You're sweet and good for me like five portions of Clementine
They thought you would change but your inner strength shined
They thought you would break but you never did cry

[Verse 2: Cryaotic]
Through the violence and trying times, I tried to
Describe that even though you're quite new, that I like you
Fights? True, we had our share
But in those circumstances, man, that is fair
But you were so smart and we were so synced
And you were such a big part of this whole thing
And I care about the others, but I know you know it within you
You're special, and so it continues

[Chorus: Both]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
[Verse 3: Boyinaband & Both]
It hurts! Goddammit, it hurts so much!
Like a car crash, man, I think I burnt the clutch
Lost in the far past that consumed you
I stayed lucky for as long as I knew you
Now I look at my memories, replay them again
And again and again, I can play and pretend
Turn my back to the world and tell it, "No, sir
There's no way in hell I intend to let her go, sir"

[Verse 4: Cryaotic & Boyinaband]
Okay, I have to trust
'Cause I really don't want this to be the last of us
No, it was too soon (Way too soon)
You were more of a cure than you knew
Goddammit, I loved you!
You elevated me, Ellie-elevated to the next level
And I hope you know you were dead special though
'Cause I know you knew it within you
But the games never end, and so it continues

[Chorus: Both]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
[Bridge: Boyinaband & Cryaotic]
You showed me your world, you let me escape
So never think for a second that I'm forgetting your face
Never think for a second that I'm forgetting your face
You show me your world, you let me escape
So never think for a second I'm forgetting your face
Never think for a second that someone's taking your place

[Chorus: Boyinaband, Cryaotic & Both]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight, you were the limelight girl
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
This can't be the credits (You showed me your world)
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
This can't be the credits (You let me escape)
And I'll never find another, and I'm never going to recover
