Leaving the city

Leaving the city expectations high
The radio's on and the mood's just right
Don't know what's hiding in the depths of my mind
It seems so scary, let's not kick this hive

Past is wrong they said, maybe you're right I said
But except for that, what do I have?
Uncertain future, too many windows to fill
Swear to god, I don't even know how I feel
And the presence
Don't try to mock me my dear
All those sleepless nights, I tried to understand what's real
And what's a lie
Flashing lights blinding me
I tried to hide, but they won't let me be... me

Leaving the city now feels so strange
I've been looking for you everywhere
Haunted by the ones who don't understand
Trying to have my mind tamed and bent

You were my only friend, now this has to end
But they can't apprehend... me
So I'm heading south into the city of lights
Into the only place I can be... me

Looking out the window I see
Everything I want to leave behind me
The ignorance, the lies
Not caring about lives
Selflessness, manipulative manners
Man and his hound, no equality matters
Things lost by blood, is still all they got
Going past the untruthful signs
They hoard while you pay fines
Money's what you need
But it goes for the ones who lead

Past is wrong they said, maybe you're right I said
But except for that what do I have?
Feeling lonely, depression's right by my side
I don't feel worthy, I might just cut the lines

And the city
Oh the city was dark
And you
You were nowhere to be found
I left a message
You haven't noticed at all
Was it on purpose?
I guess I'll never know

Leaving the city now feels so strange
I've been looking for you everywhere
Haunted by the ones who don't understand
Trying to have my mind tamed and bent

You were my only friend, now this has to end
But they can't apprehend... me
So I'm heading south into the city of lights
Into the only place I can be... me
