The City Lights;

Why don't you

Just get away?

Out of my head

Out of my way

I can't hurt

Not anymore

Dragging me down

Down to the floor

We sat there

With city lights

On your roof

Into the night

There were stars

And I saw hope

The ocean sparkled

The valley broke

It was all there

But it wasn't right

No smile would come

Just pain to fight

You shook me

Waking the dead

I was all black

Blood dripping red

Eyes so empty

With nothing inside

I wondered why,

Why even try?

I was all gone

But I still am

I guess I'm done

Please understand

You hurt me

Behind closed doors

I just can't take it....

Not anymore.
