City Lights Lyrics by Mellowood

Streetlights

2020

[Verse 1]
Walks around the busy streets
To the sound of busy feet
Longing for a life that’s out of reach
Everyday they pass him by
Watch him hold the same damn sign
Now and then the people ask him why
I’m just a drifter searchin' for something
I don’t know what yet
I’ll pray I’ll find it
Four years since I ran away
I Fear things will never change
I take the days but it’s dark at night
I wish there was more to say
Truth is there’s no other way
I’m holding on to city lights
[Verse 2]
Memories that break through time
Moments gone that come to life
Stays reminded when he’d closе his eyes
Single mothеr on the phone
Picket fences broken home
Sits him down and says she has to go
Sometimes there’re some things
Out of our control but
Know that you’ll always
Find your way home
The tears come fallin' to the ground
Feels like I’m about to drown
Why should I have to say goodbye
They say it takes pain to grow
I say better on my own
I’m strong alone but I’m weak inside
Open eyes are wide awake
Scarred from all of my mistakes
And all my life I’ve realized
That heartbreak’s just a part of it
I’ve known since the start of it
Tell me when I’m satisfied
[Verse 3]
Still at war with the pain I felt
Trying hard to forgive myself
I still dream of being someone else
But I know that seasons change
It takes some time but that’s okay
When I get there things won’t be the same
I’m still a drifter searchin' for something
Still don’t know what yet
But I know I’ll find it
Someday I’ll get out this
One day I’ll make sense of it
I’ll find a way to swallow my pride
Four years now I finally know
What’s real and what I need to let go
I’m holding on
One last time
