City Lights
These city lights are fucking up my dreams,
I walk alone and all I hear are the screams,
What I can’t take back are the only things that care
But from what I see, there might not even be anything there.
I walk alone just like everyday.
The ones I meet always have, always have so much to say
About there lives, the time all awhile
But do they know how fake my smile is?
Always show the happy part of me.
Even if its not there that’s what they need to see.
A broken part of what once was me…..
I try to see the sunshine in the day but from my eyes there is nothing more to say
My broken skin is out for every one to see.
The one the only …nothing me.
I seem to be the one that everyone wants to be.
But they could never understand how hard it is just to be.
When the only thing I have in life sadly to say is only me.
But I’ll keep going because that’s all I know to do.
And I’ll keep on trying cause what else do I know to do.
And I might keep on crying locked behind the closed door.
What else can you do, when you have loved…
But the one you loved, don’t feel it anymore.
So I go to these cities, Ol’ Chicago and Boston,
Where the streets seem to freeze everyday
San Fran and Vegas where the weather seems to call out my name
Little Rock and Dallas the places where I was raised
Seattle and Kansas City, and you can’t forget about old L.A
These city light's are killing me I just wanted to say.
