lyrics

City Lights

Verse:
These old city lights
Trash piles
Haven't seen you for a while
It has been lonely whatever that means
I've been caught on the moon
Been stuck on the stars
Being on earth is much too hard

I'm not feeling bad for myself
Just surprised at my kind
All of these people with harm in their minds

Chorus:
The word is out, the heat is too
The word is out, that you've found someone new
Is that true? Someone new?

Verse:
Wars in parts of the world,
In our own bodies too
All of this judgment just acts as a glue
I can't complain, people move on
I am much better off with you gone

Chorus:
The word is out, the heat is too
The word is out, that you've found someone new
Is that true? Someone new?

Bridge:
The word is out
Touched all our lips and still the truth is known
You've always been afraid of hearts and minds who are made of stone
After rushing fires of gossip I do see that I am prone
To an accident
The accident
Was you...

Verse:
Lights are lonelier now
But still glowing strong
And can't and help but think I was wrong
I can't complain
People move on
I am much better off with you gone

Chorus:
The word is out, the heat is too
The word is out, that you've found someone new
Is that true? Someone new?
