Manhattan

Path of light
Cover the way and keep my sight
Or steal away from me
And keep a tight lip in secret silence

Eyes like mine
Watching you blow us all to hell
But if you took our lives
There would be no one to tell your story

And how can I make you understand?
Lying with you, I held your hand
"Never look down", I hoped you say
But it's over, and I just can't believe I'm wrong

And how can I make you understand?
Lying with you, I held your hand
"Never look down", I hoped you say
Glad it's over, and I knew it was all along

Wild like time
Why can't you believe or just abide
The way I tell you so?
I stop the day for one simple side show

Season's smile
And we were unable to stay warm
But in the darkest night
And there's an ember that's always burning

And how can I make you understand?
Lying with you, I held your hand
"Never look down", I hoped you say
But it's over, and I just can't believe I'm wrong

How can I make you understand?
Lying with you, I held your hand
"Never look down", I hoped you say
But it's over, and I knew it was all along
