Daylight In The City Lyrics
It's the start of a bright new day
as the light finds its way through the curtains at the end of my night.
I'm alive in a city of dead people rising for work...
And as they ride through the cycle,
the machine revving up,
I feel a little suicidal,
just not high enough to jump.
Oh who am I kidding now?
My plan to die young,
somehow is just a memory now.
It's daylight in the city,
"just hold me," she said,
"it's been a long night in the city,
just hold me, hold me..."
I had an old friend who said I should run
like today is the last of my sick, sorry little life.
As I stared into my own eyes in the mirror by my bed,
that's when I realized nobody ever told me that,
I'm just afraid of dying.
She told me everything is gonna be all right -
everything is gonna be just fine.
as the light finds its way through the curtains at the end of my night.
I'm alive in a city of dead people rising for work...
And as they ride through the cycle,
the machine revving up,
I feel a little suicidal,
just not high enough to jump.
Oh who am I kidding now?
My plan to die young,
somehow is just a memory now.
It's daylight in the city,
"just hold me," she said,
"it's been a long night in the city,
just hold me, hold me..."
I had an old friend who said I should run
like today is the last of my sick, sorry little life.
As I stared into my own eyes in the mirror by my bed,
that's when I realized nobody ever told me that,
I'm just afraid of dying.
She told me everything is gonna be all right -
everything is gonna be just fine.

I love this song, it really describes how I feel right now. I need this cd now, and I have to re-buy their first one. This band is awesome.
This song is a perfect way to end Strata Presents The End Of the World. The entire CD Just pushes the message that there's a hole in the world and we're all falling into , and at the end it shows there's still hope and so long as we know the hole's there, things CAN get better.
