Shadows move like water here (Version 2)

Verse 1

Concrete lights flicker on the wall

Rust in the drainpipes starts to crawl

Steam from the ventpipe makes a misty square

Nobody watching what I do there

I breathe it slow through a cigarette haze

The clock tower hums like a tired gaze

Two-a.m. in an empty city block

Only me and the neon on lock

Water runs quiet down the drain

Every shadow holds my name

Pre-Chorus

Can you see what's moving out of sight?

Is that silence calling in the night?

Something rising under skin

Chorus

Shadows move like water here

We're the only ones who stay

Verse 2

The streetlight flickers yellow gold

Taxi horn cuts through the cold air

I step inside the city's skin

Letting shadows turn me from within

Every face in the crowd has gone

Leaving room for something that I know

Water rises up my heel

Rustling dark, it starts to feel

Pre-Chorus

Can you see what's moving out of sight?

Is that silence calling in the night?

Something rising under skin

Chorus

Shadows move like water here

We're the only ones who stay

Bridge

Just me and shadows, no more names

Darkness carries my every frame

It wraps around me like a stream

And I let it lift me off the ground

No one's watching, nothing at stake

Only shadows pulling on the ache

Chorus

Shadows move like water here

We're the only ones who stay
