Wet asphalt gleam under broken streetlights
Footsteps echo soft through the long dark nights
Whispers in the air a forgotten name
Playing out a scene in a silent film frame
Something pulls me down to the haze so deep
Secrets that the city forever keeps
Lost in the loop a dream I cant break
Every turning street a familiar ache
Fading light on walls where shadows play
Drifting through the hours of yesterday
Dust motes dance in the cold neon glow
Another phantom memory starts to grow
A cigarette burns slow a silent sigh
Watch the rainy world just passing by
Just a breath a whisper a fading sound
No solid ground to be found
Only echoes now in this hollow space
Vanishing without a trace
Lost in the loop a dream I cant break
Every turning street a familiar ache
Fading light on walls where shadows play
Drifting through the hours of yesterday
