City of Light

Caught on the razorblade,
Tasting the Novacane,
Do what it takes to remain.
Flow with the feeling.
Pretend I’m the furniture
Free swaying throughout the room,
Collecting from each point of view
Between me and you.
Here in the city of light,
Harder do we give up all that we were.
Stand on the top of the world
Biting our time, dying inside.
And I know what you’re trying to hide.
Searching for sounds alive,
Breathing the oxygen,
The air is thin, flow with the feeling.
You know we’re falling,
You know what hurt is,
You know it’s hard to believe
Between you and me.
Here in the city of light,
Harder do we give up all that we were.
Stand on the top of the world
Biting our time, dying inside.
And I know what you’re trying to hide.
