City of Lights - AmpEra

The more you see, the less you know The less you find out as you go I knew much more then Than I do now Neon-heart, day-glow eyes A city lit by fireflies They're advertising in the skies For people like us And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights Don't look before you laugh Look ugly in a photograph Flash bulbs, purple irises The camera can't see I've seen you walk unafraid I've seen you in the clothes you made Can you see the beauty inside of me? What happened to the beauty I had inside of me? And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights Time, time, time, time, time Won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights The more you know, the less you feel Some pray for, others steal Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel Luckily

I've been learning how to do it all the hard way Saving up, burning up my yesterdays Trying so hard not to believe Take a bite of the lies that you've been feeding me Tell me something that I don't know, leave me with those eyes I'll be right here waiting south of the city lights Wish I would've listen' to my brother when he told me Loving her is only gonna leave you lonely Don't believe in fate, careful who you love They don't care out there where you're coming from Tell me something that I don't know, leave me with those eyes I'll be right here waiting south of the city lights It's been a long time coming to finding out that I don't know it all It's always good when you get it, don't take too long till you wanna go Now I'll just sit and stare at white walls all the time Wish you would somehow hear that I ain't doing fine I'll never be the same, I'll never love again I'll never leave this mess that I've been living in Tell me something that I don't know, leave me with those eyes I'll be right here waiting, south of the city lights South of the city lights, south of the city lights

City lights give me comfort I hear his voice when I sleep I lost him to the rain We never made it out alive We would never be the same I'm calling out your name We never made it back in time We would never be the same I lost him to the rain City lights give me answers I need his heart to rest my head I got lost in a darkened place We might miss all the final traces I got lost in a darkened place Now I feel left out City lights I lost him to the rain We never made it out alive We would never be the same I'm calling out your name We never made it back in time We would never be the same I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain We never made it out alive We would never be the same I'm calling out your name We never made it back in time We would never be the same I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain I lost him to the rain

City lights, take me away Now it's time, we never ever head down Don't be scared, I am for real Hide away and we will never be found It's alright, we never look back Birds will sing if we fall It's alright with memories inside Midnight dust on the floor Watch it turn into gold And I don't even know what's real And I don't know what to feel I'm your truth in disguise I'm in love with your lies 'Cause I can't breath, can't settle down And I don't know what to feel No, I don't know what to feel See these lights, we're gettin' away Heads won't find us, we're not making a sound We're not scared, we are for real Love can't hurt us, now we're sheltered by lies It's alright, we never look back Birds will sing if we fall It's alright with memories inside Midnight dust on the floor Watch it turn into gold And I don't even know what's real And I don't know what to feel I'm your truth in disguise I'm in love with your lies 'Cause I can't breath, can't settle down And I don't know what to feel No, I don't know what to feel
