Like Lightning Lyrics

It's about that time when
I got to throw lightning
I could've been something
Without you, now
It's about that time when
I got to do something
Got to be like lightning
Be somebody new now

La-la, yeah, woo

I know my way back
I've seen that sky collapse
I've heard that thunder clap
I've seen that lightning crack
I know my way home
I'll mend those broken bones
I've seen that lightning crack

Don't just think about yourself
(Get some help) go get some help
(They're coming for you) they're coming for you
Don't just think about yourself
(You get help) you should get some help
(They're coming for you) they're coming for you

It's about that time when
I got to throw lightning
I could've been something
Without you, now
It's about that time when
I got to do something
Got to be like lightning
Be somebody new now

Lightning
Come for you

Under a setting sun
I will not be undone
My day has just begun
Come here, break me off some
Under a setting sun
I will not be undone
My day has just begun

Don't just think about yourself
(Get some help) get some help
(They're coming for you) they're coming for you
Don't just think about yourself
(You get help) you should get some help
(They're coming for you) they're coming for you
(Be somebody new) out of the blue
You should think about yourself
You should get some help
(They're coming for you) they're coming for you
(Be somebody new) be somebody new
Don't just think about yourself
You should get some help
Be somebody new

It's about that time when
I got to throw lightning
I could've been something
Without you, now
It's about that time when
I got to do something
Got to be like lightning
Be somebody new now

Like lightning, ooh
(Like lightning)
