Big City Lights

I don't know who you are today
Like you don't know what I went through yesterday
Like the tears that run down my cheeks or the redemption that I seek
You're not who you were yesterday

And I hate just how bad you are for me
Like I despise the way it feels when we speak
Cos' I know that it's so wrong but it feels just so damn right
It's like I'm battling with my mind

There was a time where we fit perfectly together
Where our hearts beat as one
Now I have to laugh and I'm sad when I see you
Cos' I don't know who you've become
You're not the girl that I loved

And when you moved to those big city lights
The small town girl inside your heart died
Your roots torn from the ground, your head spinning round and round
Which mask will you wear tonight?

And I don't think you know exactly where you're headed
Or the direction that you should be going in
But I can tell you after years of experience
You've got a long road ahead

But you should've been here lying in my tired arms
Blanket to our chins
A love so sweet but yet a pain that's neverending
Seems we let the devil win
Better to have loved than to never have lived

But there was a time where we fit perfectly together
Where our hearts, they didn't succumb
To those temptations
Our frustrations
That came with our relation
But in the end the devil won
Cos' you're not the girl that I loved
