I walk the streets of the city of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore And though the lights are so pretty it don’t feel like home anymore Now it’s cold The frosty wind blows As homeless sleep on the ground Tourist pay For snacks and they say There’s a beautiful chill in the air I don’t care I seen all the rise and fall And back up again I pretend to be alive But deep inside there’s no light I used to fight But not anymore What’s it all for This system of things The music brings All that we wanted and more I walk the streets of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore And though the lights are so pretty It don’t feel like home anymore Now I can’t Take my place Familiar faces are gone I look back At my youthful grace And all these spaces are gone Now we’re ghosts Here unseen Passing through Where we once been All we are Is all that well ever be I walk the streets of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore I walk the streets of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore I walk the streets of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore I walk the streets of the city but it don’t feel like home anymore

Under the warm winter sun Snow slowly melting In time it will become A river flowing Away these moments will go And we will not know till there gone How we wanted to keep Keep on holding on And it’s all in my mind I was bending the light To me Now I see It was more than a dream It was more than a dream Into dark violet skies My cameras aiming Up on mountains alone I’ve been here waiting For the light to be right But the lights always right in my eyes Shouldn’t be a surprise to me And it’s all in my mind I was bending the time To me Now I see It was more than a dream It was more than dream Over this empty space My thoughts I’ve given To much time to erase Now I’m just riddling Pretty soon I ‘ll be gone Just like the ghost on this hill At times reminded until We’re faded memories.

In the end We’re all just dreaming Living inside our minds Most of the time I close my eyes And I’m ascending Up into the sky To go for a ride Dark Dark violet skies Won’t you take me for a ride Dark Dark violet skies Won’t you take me for a ride again Into the clouds I float without a care I can go anywhere I wanna go But in time The colors will fade But I just wanna stay For a little while Dark Dark violet skies Won’t you take me for a ride Dark Dark violet skies Won’t you take me for a ride again Oh these moments I’m alive Floating in a dark violet sky Oh these moments I’m alive Floating in a dark violet sky Again Dark Dark violet skies Won’t you take for a ride Again

Into the dark violet skies Won’t you come and take me for a ride I hold my head up to the clouds Dark violet skies take me for a ride Dark violet skies take me for a ride Before the colors disappear Lift me off of the ground into the air I hold my head up I’m ready to fly Dark violet skies take me for a ride Dark violet skies take me for a ride Dark violet skies take me for a ride
