Does anyone have the time to bring me down?

And can I sleep all night long

To the drums of the city rain?

Just make it up

Cuz I’m awake all night long

To the drums of the city rain

And brother if you have the chance to pick me up?

And can I sleep on your couch

To the pound of the ache and pain?

I'm my head, cuz I’m awake all night long

To the drums of the city rain

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take to make us feel this

I can’t go back

Don’t think I will

I won’t sleep tonight as long as I still

Hear the drums of the city rain

Does anyone have the guts to shut me up?

Cuz I believe that every night

There’s a chance we can walk away

So hold on tight

Because I won’t wait too long

In the drums of the beating rain

Cuz the nights don’t last

And we leave alone

Will you drive me back?

Can you take me home?

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take to make us feel this

I can’t go back

Don’t think I will

I won’t sleep tonight as long as I still

Hear the drums of the city rain

Faces I don’t know

I am tired in the glow

Of the freezing glow

Keep me breathing don’t make the lights come back

Can you take me home?

We all need this when we leave alone

Remember when you and I would make things up?

So many nights, just take me down to the place

We would hear them play

I miss that sound

Cuz now we don’t sing so loud

To the drums of the city rain

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take to make us feel this

I can’t go back

Don’t think I will

I won’t sleep tonight as long as I still

Hear the drums of the city rain

Like strangers laugh and like subways feel

Things I’m trying to break

Oh, just wait until this is all we have to keep us ill

I won’t breathe tonight as long as I still hear

The drums of the city rain
