City Lights

Another night out in the city lights
But you just seem to be in a dream and you're too polite
I can see you're not where you wanna be
There's two songs playing at once and it's killing me
I will go 'cause we don't need to be here
I will go 'cause we don't need to be here
You know I live for the unplanned night
Inside jokes for untrained eyes
Let's step it up, get through the gears
'Cause all these days are turning into years
I wanna climb till my body shakes
But when I touch that sky will the ladder break?
And who will be there on my fall from grace?
You're on the run
It's a shame you're the only one
Running this race 'cause I know that face
I can see you're done
Still I should know that we don't need to be here
I will go, 'cause we don't need to be here
You know I live for the unplanned night
Inside jokes for untrained eyes
Let's step it up, get through the gears
'Cause all these days are turning into years
I wanna climb till my body shakes
But when I touch that sky will the ladder break?
And who will be there on my fall from grace?
(On my fall from grace)
You know I live for the unplanned night
Inside jokes for untrained eyes
Let's step it up, get through the gears
'Cause all these days are turning into years
I wanna climb till my body shakes
But when I touch that sky will the ladder break?
And who will be there on my fall from grace?
Yeah, who will be there on my fall from grace?
