The lights go out The city sleeps tonight The sound of silence, feel walls whispering loud I admire you when the sun is dreaming quietly Streetlights let the awkward shine bright Shadows running fast, frightened to get punished from the light I'm not afraid of the sun but i don't like how you change By the end of the night - with the start of dawn In the daylight faces look so bright Plastic smile! I do not fit in living a hollow life Sharing this place by day with these judging eyes Dead lanterns bring back to mind - Feeling home in the street lights I walk relentless through my play You're the stage: a cold and calm paradise, My potential escape into the life Cause no one can take away your stories No one can steal these memories You talk to me, still by my side One steady fellow through the night So i don't even care Your words and hands can't tie me down I can stand the times of pain The scars I earn, the names I own The dirty things I smell foremost The city writes its stories down The memories are mine
