Recorded in Dublin and produced in Sweden with longtime collaborator Adam Kviman, I am Lightning is PictureHouse at their most positive. With a synth intro serving as a call to arms and opening lyrics “There’s nowhere you can be that’s better than where you are now” I am lightning will be the second massive radio hit for PictureHouse this summer following “Some Night She Will Be Mine”

I am Lightning lyrics

There’s nowhere you can be That’s better than where you are now The future’s in the past Each time the second hand moves around

Seize the day….. I am lightning, I am flame, It’s igniting, say my name, I am lightning, I am flame, It’s igniting, say my name,

Sometimes the things we wish for, Are the things we leave behind. Don’t forget to look around, You never know what you might find

If you feel the wind blowing, The clouds are gathering over you, From the darkness brightest lights can shine..
