[Verse 1]
All alone on the city high
In New York and death of night
We come swimm and we're about to jump
All alone in the famous town

[Chorus]
We always knew we never would survive
Protect all us are higher in the night
We on the way, on the way out
We on the way, on the way out (on the way out, way out)

[Post-Chorus]
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu

[Verse 2]
No oxygen left in our hearts
Goin' down and we felt the pain
But we lookin' cool sinking in the chain
We feel the same as we fall apart

[Bridge]
I was in the blue and the lights behind us
Shot us in the back but keep on ridin'
I don't wanna go where the lights is blinding

[Chorus]
We always knew we'll never will survive (survive)
Protect all us were higher in the night
We on the way, on the way out
We on the way, on the way out (on the way out, way out)

[Post-Chorus]
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu
Tu-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu-ru-tu

[Chorus 2x]
We always knew we never would survive (survive)
Protect all us are higher in the night
We on the way, on the way out
We on the way, on the way out (on the way out, way out)

[Outro]
All alone on the city high
In New York and death of night

Charli XCX

Charlotte Emma Aitchison (born 2 August 1992), known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer-songwriter known for her eclectic style. She began making music at fourteen, and her debut release was a 2008 limited-edition album aptly titled 14.

By 2010, Charli signed to Atlantic Records, and released her debut single “Stay Away” in May 2011. She released her “real” debut album, True Romance, in 2013. The record met critical acclaim but failed to attain much commercial success. Charli’s true breakthrough came with the release of hit collaborations like Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” and Icona Pop’s “I Love It.”

In April 2014, Charli found solo success with “Boom Clap,” which was featured on the soundtrack of The Fault in Our Stars. It’s now certified triple platinum in the United States and gold in her native United Kingdom. Her sophomore album, Sucker, was a pop-punk oriented effort and enjoyed more success than her debut. “Break The Rules,” “Doing It” (featuring Rita Ora), and “Famous” all performed well on the UK singles chart.
