City Lights

City lights
Shining bright
Streets are quiet in the silence of the night
Feelin free
You and me
Oh what we used to be

Walking down king street west
Had a bit of liquor I was too feelin to depressed
I don’t wanna text you
Shit I can’t forget you

I’ve been holding back
After all the shit we went through
My body on withdrawal baby boy I miss that d
The nights that we would fight and make up passionately
The fire that we had that shit was outworldly
The way that we connected didn’t happen casually

You thought me your philosophies
A better way to live
Showed me a perspective
So that I could coexist

With the demons in my mind
I know you wanted to be mine
But I said “we’re only friends”
I couldn’t leave the past behind

City lights
Shining bright
Streets are quiet in the silence of the night
Feelin free
You and me
Oh what we used to be

The only man that could figure me out
Behind the crazy bitch is just a heart in drought
The pain that consumes me
After all the men that used me
It was you that understood me

I look back, feel that
The happiness that now I lack
The tears of joy that I once had
Now are a river empty
That feels deep and cold

I need you here
I need you back
I'm sorry for letting my fear
Keep you from ever coming near

City lights
Shining bright
Streets are quiet in the silence of the night
Feelin free
You and me
Oh what we used to be
