City Lights

Floating through the lights, like a feather would do
Avoiding all of the hurt I am skipping the news
And my
Daily shot of ethyl is surely not lethal
It's just the motivation I need to find purpose
Lost in a sea of lights, can't get any rest
City of dreams, lost in the fog, so hard to navigate
The eternal silence of space does scare me
But it's nothing compare to the buzz of the city
In the light your worst nightmare lurks
The kind to slit your throat and watch you die with a smirk
You better watch out cause the city lights will snatch you
You should step away if it's not what you're used to

Another day, another night, another story told
Over the city lights I can't get a hold
Lost souls forgotten into the night's cold
Still trying to get free from what we've been told
Another day, another night, another story told
Over the city's heart I can't get a hold
Lost souls forgotten into the night's cold
Still trying to get free from what we've been told

Lone wolf going down the same road
Struggling to grasp the sent that leads to my goal
I run and don't look back when I see the pack
But maybe some day, some night I'll have to join the fight
I see the light when I'm talking true, Parting off my heart in two
Feeling all the pain within my soul less view
It's hard to tell where the truth really lies
I don't wanna play along, I don't wanna embrace all the lies
Lost in a sea of lights, can't get any rest
City of dreams, lost in the fog, so hard to concentrate
The eternal silence of space still scares me
But it's nothing compare to my lack of ingenuity
In the night my worst nightmare lurks
The kind to slit my throat and watch me die with a smirk
You better watch out cause the city lights will blind you
You should step away if you need to find something true

Another day, another night, another story told
Over the city lights I can't get a hold
Lost souls forgotten into the night's cold
Still trying to get free from what we've been told
Another day, another night, another story told
Over the city's heart I can't get a hold
Lost souls forgotten into the night's cold
Still trying to get free from what we've been told

Chasing a dream way too far to be seen
Blinding my view of the world I keep watching this screen
And I'm
Far from all the drama I'm heating the sofa
It's hard to get to someone who's lost his sole purpose
So in the brink of dawn I'll leave all behind
Don't ask me how, I don't know, it's not clear in my mind
But light as a feather I will fall asleep
Not roaming in the street, cause this time I play for keeps
I'm sure glad you're here cause somehow you make me
Keep up my sanity and my will to be free
So we'll drive away looking for better times
Sure it would come if only I could write better rhymes
And as the time will pass, and through the fights
Remember that we used to live trapped in a cage of light
So now, let's run away from the grasp of the lights
And find a way to make our whole future bright
