Underneath

Underneath - Your Favorite Enemies

He called me late last night,

Saying he found something or someone

It wasn't clear, or maybe I wasn't totally awake

I wish I've been

The lights are flowing down

The lights are flowing down

Right down over the edge

Right down over the edge

Of another night

Everything seems so blurry at times

As if the world was falling on its knees

As if the skyline was stretching somehow

Are we all the same

Underneath...

The lights are flowing down

Skyline just hit the ground

We're standing over the edge

All yearning over the edge

Of another night

Of another night

Just another night

Just another night

He said thank you, or sorry, I don't know

He sounded good... at peace...

He didn't say much, I wish he had

At least, for just another night

The lights are flowing down

Skyline just hit the ground

Our shadows are the ghosts

Our shadows are the ghosts

I've seen every color

Felt every shiver of the city

As much as a son, I've never felt at home

The water keeps its course as the buildings

Are stretching through the sky,

The sky is fading underneath,

Like a soul kneeling for peace,

A thousand cries without a tear

We're craving whispers, dressed with fears

He wasn't just a"guy"

He's always been someone to me

Just glad I had him if not even till dawn

And in the drift of days, the drift of lonely days

Static is the essence of life, when dreams keep falling apart

For another night

Dreams become wishes that will vanish into prayers

And prayers are turned into empty promises

Aren't we all

The lights are flowing down

Skyline just hit the ground

Our shadows are the ghosts, no colors

Our shadows are the ghosts, no colors

His clothes never fit him quite right

I wish I had understood a bit more

Silence could be pretty loud you know

The lights are flowing down

Skyline just hit the ground

Our shadows are the ghosts, no colors

Our shadows are the ghosts, no colors

Darkness is a leopard growling for shades

My twilight's getting brighter

I'm too hopeless to care, oh brother

Too hopeless to care, oh brother

Too desperate to see no colors

The water keeps its course as the buildings

Are stretching through the sky,

The sky is fading underneath,

Like a soul kneeling for peace,

A thousand cries without a tear

We're craving whispers, dressed with fears

For faithless wonderland we're mourning after

La la la la la la la la la

Underneath

He left a few words of his own around

Who knows, I might leave as well

Maybe I just forgot what it was like to lose it all

All over again

I loved everything about this place,

Like a stranger would fall in love

Somehow innocence is a plague here,

And I needed more to keep breathing...

The water keeps its course as the buildings

Are stretching through the sky,

The sky is fading underneath,

Like a soul kneeling for peace,

A thousand cries without a tear

We're craving whispers, dressed with fears

For faithless wonderland we're mourning after

La la la la la la la la la

Underneath
