City Speaks in Coins (version 2)

Verse

Cold steel streets keep time like bone

Every window holds a second tone.

Your eyes cut through the amber haze

Two shadows meeting in the maze.

I count the coins you let it slide

Not how you look but how you ride.

Sirens hum where we used to run

Now this whole block is one big tune

Pre-Chorus

Do you hear that? The city speaks in coins

Counting every step you make and choose.

Is it silence or a slow refrain?

Which one will lead us out of this pain?

Chorus

City Speaks in Coins

Two shadows moving to the same low beat

Hands never touching but our feet keep time to the street

Whoever wins gets to claim the heat!

Hold the rhythm, don't let go!

City Speaks in Coins, I know!

Ringing on your fingers where my name should glow

Verse

Taxis line up like a ritual row

Your coat sleeve catches every headlight glow.

I know the count before you say it loud

It's not about the money; it's about how we're allowed.

A parking ticket becomes our anthem song

Two souls moving to a rhythm all alone.

The sirens fade when we lock eyes slow

Turns out silence was just another loan

Pre-Chorus

Do you hear that? The city speaks in coins

Counting every step you make and choose.

Is it silence or a slow refrain?

Which one will lead us out of this pain?

Chorus

City Speaks in Coins

Two shadows moving to the same low beat

Hands never touching but our feet keep time to the street

Whoever wins gets to claim the heat!

Hold the rhythm, don't let go!

City Speaks in Coins, I know!

Ringing on your fingers where my name should glow

Bridge

Maybe silence isn't silence at all

It's just a language only we can call.

I'll hold this second till it turns to sound

Then the whole block starts spinning around

Outro

City Speaks in Coins...

Coins...

Still ringing...
