(We Are in the) Dreams of the City

Baby, I've been holding you way too tight
It's par for the course
I'm building a scene
It's feeding my need for complexity and overexposure

Maybe I've been trying to pick a fight
You're following suit
As far as it seems
It's bleeding into my sense of relief and taking me over

We are in the dreams, we are in the dreams of the city

Maybe there's a pattern in the turns I take
The places we see
The drinks that we share
It's feeding my need for complexity and cognitive closure

But baby, we've been trying too hard tonight
Another long shot
We're crossing the streams
It's bleeding into my sense of relief and taking it over

We are in the dreams, we are in the dreams of the city

I'm praying for the taxicabs
To beam me right back home
"Reality", she said to me
I could not shake it off

I'm praying for these concrete teeth
To never see the day
I'm far too frightened of the songs
They're singing in their slumber

We are in the dreams, we are in the dreams of the city
