City Lights Won't Let Me Sleep (version 2)

Verse

Concrete jungle spits gold on the glass tower wall

Eyes catch a blur but they don't drop at all

Doorman lights up his phone like he knows my name

Bassline ticking under the traffic shame

Pre-Chorus

I count the windows one by one

Nobody's home, I'm still having fun

Doors stay closed but my heart won't stop running

Static static in the silence that it's doing

Chorus

City lights won't let me sleep

Silver sky, silver steam

Neon's screaming so loud inside of me

City lights won't let me sleep tonight

Hands up high on the empty street

Windows catch every beat

Verse 2

Six a.m., taxis breathe exhaust and smoke

Streetlights flicker like they're watching something grow

Somebody's cat on the fifth floor ledge above

I feel that same hum, I'm not falling out of love

Pre-Chorus

I count the windows one by one

Nobody's home, I'm still having fun

Doors stay closed but my heart won't stop running

Static static in the silence that it's doing

Chorus

City lights won't let me sleep

Silver sky, silver steam

Neon's screaming so loud inside of me

City lights won't let me sleep tonight

Hands up high on the empty street

Windows catch every beat

Bridge

Maybe I'm a ghost behind these glass walls

Trailing static off each city hall

Nobody needs me home till dawn

So I keep dancing, keep the block lit on

Chorus

City lights won't let me sleep

Silver sky, silver steam

Neon's screaming so loud inside of me

City lights won't let me sleep tonight

Hands up high on the empty street

Windows catch every beat
