The City Lyrics by Paper Anthem

To All the Sailors We’ve Lost

2019

[Verse 1]
Light here bleeds into the ocean
It bleeds into the skyline
So I can see for miles
And I feel everyone's a liar
Everyone's just fake
Like me
[Chorus]
But somewhere there are lights
Somewhere far away
And I know it's alright
To find another way
[Verse 2]
City, I see you so clearly
I love you so dearly
I believe in us
And in my favorite mindset
Everything's just perfect
Everything's so real
[Chorus]
But somewhere therе are lights
Somewherе far away
And I know it's alright
To find another way
But somewhere there are lights
Somewhere far away
And I know it's alright
To find another way
[Outro]
So dress your best and we'll go out west
And we'll find what you're looking for
And everything else and more
But in the meantime, we'll know our names
With every spark to our flame
And they will know our names
And they will know our names
And they will know our names
And they will know our names
And they will know our names
