lyrics

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
