Lyrics
Red Lights
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.
It's a long road so I think that I might fly there
But I'm afraid of heights and I can't afford the airfare
Just when I thought there's nothing left to say
Red lights turn green for me today
I've heard a lot of fairytales about my hometown
I'm not ashamed of where I'm from or what I know now
I know that everything will be okay
Red lights turn green for me today
And I can see it now
When all is said and done
I will stand tall
And shine for everyone
Cause they never took our hearts
And though these walls are dead and gone
We're driving on
Fucking cold outside but we take something from it
We've had better days but I see a new day coming
Even though the sky is always grey
Red lights turn green for me today
