City Lights

City lights, city lights on this empty road
Will it take me home?
Such a sight, such a sight when the city glows
While I lose control
Start a fire, start a fire in these weary eyes
Will I get through the night now you're gone
Will I get through the night?
Will I get through the night now you're gone
Will I get something right?
Oh
Conquer it all, start with a fight in this restless soul
End this night, end this night 'fore it take you whole
And bloom inside
Empty bottles, empty bottles to keep a float
Will I get through the night now you're gone
Will I get through the night?
Will I get through the night now you're gone
Will I get something right?
Oh
Conquer it all, start with a fight in this restless soul
Conquer it all, start with a fight in this restless soul
In this restless soul
In this restless soul
In this restless soul
In this restless soul
In this restless soul
In this restless soul
Oh
Conquer it all, start with a fight in this restless soul
Conquer it all, start with a fight in this restless soul
