Lyrics

City Electric

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

This life’s electric-

You can feel the pulse out on the street.

The boys keep moving-

Girls, they always seem to follow the beat.

This town it breathes in-

A hunger deeper down, it’s underground.

These changes, they change-

Familiar faces at one time look strange.

Call me crazy, 'cause I still hold on-

Call me foolish; I’m a believer.

We were never meant to walk alone-

I don’t think I’m the last of the dreamers.

(O-oh, o-oh-)

The city’s electric tonight-

Burning under bright lights.

(O-oh, o-oh-)

The city’s so active-

Alive-

Can you feel it?

(O-oh, o-oh-)

You know we're living out loud, like we still need it-

(We still need it-)

(O-oh, o-oh-)

City electric, the city's electric tonight.

The search is still on-

Voices calling out from wilderness.

Some say to let go-

Some things things are out of your control.

I tried but I just can’t stop-

I tried but I can’t stop 'til we progress-

'Til we progress.

Call me crazy, but there’s still a chance-

Call me foolish; an over-achiever.

We can be exactly who we want-

I don’t think I’m the last of the dreamers.

(O-oh, o-oh-)

The city’s electric tonight-

Burning under bright lights.

(O-oh, o-oh-)

The city’s so active-

Alive-

Can you feel it?

(O-oh, o-oh-)

You know we're living out loud, like we still need it-

(We still need it-)

(O-oh, o-oh-)

City electric, the city's electric tonight.

Whoa-

Live like you feel it-

Whoa-

Live like you need it-

Whoa-

Live like you feel this.

Live like you love-

Live like you love, whoa-

The city's electric tonight.
