Lyrics

Rush beneath my skin, I drown within Silver sweat, you shine, infused with mine Sell my soul tonight, your heat feels divine

Kiss that kills the pain, I crave again Now I can't stay clean, you're my darkest dream I need you one more time

Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar She's running from the light, burning bright 'Cause she's a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar She's chasing every high, I'm mesmerised 'Cause she's a nightshift, uh, a nightshift superstar

Rhythm breaks the chain, so unrestrained Silence speaks the truth, I split in two I'm just so consumed by you tonight

You're my darkest dream I need you one more time 'cause

Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar She's running from the light, burning bright 'Cause she's a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar She's chasing every high, I'm mesmerised 'Cause she's a nightshift, uh, a nightshift superstar

(Nightshift, a, a nightshift) (A, a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar) (Nightshift, a, a nightshift) (A, a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar) (Nightshift, a, a nightshift) (A, a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar) (Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar) (She's feeling you just right, such a fright) ('Cause she's a nightshift, a, a night-)

Dancing free, you are a nightshift superstar She's running from the light, burning bright 'Cause she's a nightshift, a, a nightshift superstar (Dancing free, you are) Dancing free, you are (A nightshift superstar) A nightshift superstar Mesmerised 'cause she's a nightshift, uh, a nightshift (superstar)
