The City Hides Desire

Turn the volume up to drown this awkward silence
While you're off day dreaming in your own land
Words without a choice
Have put me in this position, this position
Of this loss of sleep
It's ok to move on if you want to
I can't hold it against you
I will be the same
I won't be the one to let you down.
With these philly lights on fire
My eyes can barely see the prize
As this city hides desire, it can also hide these cries
As I'm screaming from these windows
The skyline soars above my head
If I can't leave this city
I'll surely wind up dead to the world
I am so sick of being here
In the spot I've been for all these years, here I am
On these trips to mountain tops, I'll relax when vacation drops
When vacation drops
It's ok to move on if you want to
I can't hold it against you
I will be the same
I won't be the one to let you down.
With these philly lights on fire
My eyes can barely see the prize
As this city hides desire, it can also hide these cries
As I'm screaming from these windows
The skyline soars above my head
If I can't leave this city
I'll surely wind up dead to the world
So give me an answer as you blame yourself
You make things harder but I'll do them myself
Never let this go
No more crying cuz it's all dried up
The tears inside are just out of luck
Never let this go
Never let this go.
So you think you're better off on the west coast, well, I've got a story for you now: imaging if you never met me before in your life.
