Mirrored towers catch the sunset
Steel horizons gleam in gold
Glass facades begin dissolving
Into colors growing cold
Elevators hum through hollow
Levels fading floor by floor
Every second drifting lower
Toward a view I’ve seen before
From the edges of the rooftops
Gravity begins to call
Every breath becoming weightless
As the shining windows fall
We’re falling past the skyline tonight
Through the glitter and the steel
Every rooftop slipping by
Like a dream that feels too real
Let the towering shapes dissolve
Into shadows drawn in line
All the world begins to tilt
Falling past the skyline
Office corridors grow empty
Paper drifting in the air
Streetlamps flicker far beneath me
Tiny sparks of amber glare
Billboards blinking distant stories
Faces glowing far below
Every outline slowly melting
Into patterns set aglow
Through the canyon formed by towers
Motion pulls me further down
Every heartbeat feels suspended
Over structures made of crown
We’re falling past the skyline tonight
Through the glitter and the steel
Every rooftop slipping by
Like a dream that feels too real
Let the towering shapes dissolve
Into shadows drawn in line
All the world begins to tilt
Falling past the skyline
Maybe somewhere past the rooftops
Morning waits beyond the haze
But this downward drifting moment
Holds a thousand glowing rays
Every building forms a painting
Every shimmer tells a tale
All the noise of crowded hours
Turns to whispers thin and pale
Still we’re falling past the skyline tonight
Through the shimmering design
Every tower fading bright
Into shapes I can't define
All the city turns to spark
In a vast and open sign
All the world becomes a blur
Falling past the skyline
