One City Night (edited)
By Tyler "Q"
A bird with a broken wing
A church without light
I stand out here in the crosswalk
Getting lost in the night
Nursing drugs to surrender
When every inch of me fights
There I see the warning
Broken lamps reveal hidden stop signs
Agressive driving home
Can I take it all in stride
Take comfort in the distance
And pretend everything is fine
I whisper to you every night I love you
As my eyes start to close
Even if I'm alone
Like I should have done months ago
Tight spaces to fit through
A bar on every corner
Everything is too expensive
It is all so foriegn
Anything you want right at the backdoor
I'm rushing but I want it sooner
Loud music racing by
Floating blue and red stars
Sky's light is an orange street lamp
Can you see me where you are
Lost on every city block
Softly saying I'm so sorry
I whisper to you every night I love you
As your eyes start to close
Even you're alone
With no one special to phone
We are always alone
And what I'd give to speak to you
Until you close your eyes
You would know my love is true
Think of me just once this night
Feel for one second the comfortable love we had
Every night I will think of you
Comforted by our lost love and sadness
