The City Never Sleeps (But We Do) (النسخة 2)

Verse

Concrete veins pulsing in the dark

Steel beams rusting like a thousand scars

Busted streetlights humming out of tune

Rubber soles screeching against the pavement's chew

Four in the morning, neon drains

Fading static on the radio's frame

Every exit blocked by smoke and sweat

The city never sleeps but we do instead

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it dying down the block?

Bare feet tapping out a slower clock

Nothing left to prove before the sun

Let the sirens take over, everyone

Chorus

The city never sleeps but we do

Every window's open where the static used to be

Golden towers burning in the dark

We're just trying to find our own hard road home

The city never sleeps but we do

Leaving shadows on the walls that glow

Verse

Sidewalk vendors selling dust and air

Basslines bleeding through the ventilation grate there

Faded graffiti fading like a memory

Concrete's hot beneath our bare feet and they

Rust in every water tower's frame

Pigeons pecking at the broken glass again

Every fire hydrant hissing out of steam

Nothing but a city full of dead machine dreams

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it dying down the block?

Bare feet tapping out a slower clock

Nothing left to prove before the sun

Let the sirens take over, everyone

Chorus

The city never sleeps but we do

Every window's open where the static used to be

Golden towers burning in the dark

We're just trying to find our own hard road home

The city never sleeps but we do

Leaving shadows on the walls that glow

Bridge

So let it burn, so let it fade

Maybe something beautiful will stay

Not the steel and glass or all the smoke

But the ones who kept their hearts awake

Chorus

The city never sleeps but we do

Every window's open where the static used to be

Golden towers burning in the dark

We're just trying to find our own hard road home

The city never sleeps but we do

Leaving shadows on the walls that glow
