lyrics

Gasping for air as my conscious wakes,
My body moves but my mind it stays.
A lifelong vision of a loveless life,
Pretending not to care but I'm full of lies.

I'd never really opened up until we met,
But I bet if I'd let you stay you'd regret,
Ever meeting me. Ever seeing my face.

I lie awake long into the night,
Just staring out at these city lights.
Thinking of all the trouble I've caused,
All the love and the friends I've lost.

Finding it hard to resist the calling,
On solid ground but it feels like I'm falling.

The night time lights flicker, it's the beginning of winter.
This cold weather is spreading, This evil begging to tempt me.
I won't let the darkness win, the fire inside rages on. 
Lighting up this night sky with these city lights.

Let us see what your words are worth.
The lights are out.
