city lights Lyrics
My hand out the window of your car
It feels like astral projection
I feel so dumb and you can tell
Remember you’re my protection
Nothing feels real except myself
We walk through the busy street market
I want to punch your arm, but I
I don’t know why, and that’s the hardest part
At the loud intersection, I’m ready to unload
Bring up all of my shit, I don’t wanna take that road
But in the quiet moments, unheld hands
Hanging words and unkept plans
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
Quiet moments, dark and still
I stand alone and I always will
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
Your brain’s a spreadsheet, meanwhile mine
Is just a pseudo sound poem
These people don’t run out of words
We flick our ash like we don’t know ‘em
I cry too much, it’s getting old
But you’re too nice, so you join in
You can’t put down your phone and I’m
Secure, I know you’re not avoiding me
But one day you will and I’m crying to rehearse
Quiet moments, unheld hands
Hanging words and unkept plans
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
Quiet moments, dark and still
I stand alone and I always will
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
You hold your breath for the Volta
But I won’t read it forever so,
You’ll keep me around till we’re older
Cause I can’t handle this alone
You hold your breath for the Volta
But I won’t read it forever so,
You’ll keep me around till we’re older
Cause I can’t handle
In the quiet moments, unheld hands
Hanging words and unkept plans
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
Quiet moments, dark and still
I stand alone and I always will
Reverberate
I fade away
Like the city lights at the end of the tunnel
