Verse 1:
Out in the back, where no one can see,
An empty pool waiting, just my board and me.
Cracks in the tile, the sun's shining bright,
Got my friends by my side, we’re feeling alright.
Chorus:
Skate, skate, till the sun goes down,
Wheels on the edge, we’re kings of this town.
Laughs and shouts, we don’t make a sound,
But the sirens are coming, it’s time to shut it down.
Verse 2:
Kickflips and grinds, we own this place,
Just a bunch of rebels, with dirt on our face.
Chasing our dreams, we don't fear the fall,
In this empty backyard, we’re having a ball.
Chorus:
Skate, skate, till the sun goes down,
Wheels on the edge, we’re kings of this town.
Laughs and shouts, we don’t make a sound,
But the sirens are coming, it’s time to shut it down.
Bridge:
The blue lights flash, hear the loudspeaker call,
"You kids in the pool, you’re gonna lose it all!"
Heart racing fast, we don't wanna get caught,
But the thrill of the ride is a lesson well taught.
Verse 3:
We grab our boards, it’s a mad dash now,
Jumping the fence, we’re out, somehow.
Freedom’s a risk, but oh, it feels right,
Living life fast, we’ll skate through the night.
Chorus:
Skate, skate, till the sun goes down,
Wheels on the edge, we’re kings of this town.
Laughs and shouts, we don’t make a sound,
But the sirens are coming, it’s time to shut it down.
Outro:
So here’s to the nights, we skated so free,
In an empty backyard, just my friends and me.
Though the cops might come, and the fun's gotta cease,
We’ll always remember those moments of peace.
