Hello static city

I fell victim to your lights

You crush the breath from my lungs

Steal me away

Goodbye

Goodbye night

The daybreak's coming early

We will pass the world away

This isn't just another page, I swear it

I will write and we will pass these times away

Don't want to be like everybody else and miss my chance

We will pass these tired times


With fading hope and open arms

Hand in hand, we will make it through this life

So paint me black and close my eyes


I can't imagine what it's like to walk alone

Through this gauntlet of deceit

I will never turn my back on you

Burn my hands off once again

And we will make the best of this 


[Chorus:]

Fading hope and open arms

Hand in hand, we will make it through this life

So paint me black and close my eyes

The city lights will leave us blind anyway

And we will make it through this


These times call for desperate measures

Strike a match, pull the pin


Hello, static city

I fell victim to...


[Chorus]


The city lights will leave us blind anyway.
