Fading City Lights

Another city blur, another nameless street We cling to shadows where the concrete meets The pre-dawn hush, just before the grey Whispers of a life we can't truly sway. Your hand in mine, a pulse I barely feel A fragile warmth, too beautiful to be real. We watch the lonely streetlights flicker out Before the world outside begins to shout.

Oh, these fading city lights They guard our stolen nights Two hearts beating, out of time, out of sight Forever chasing dawn, with nowhere to land Just holding tight to a love they'll never understand.

We spoke of futures, bathed in moonlit haze A tiny cottage, lost in ancient days Where morning never came, and stars were always bright A sanctuary from eternal flight. But every whisper of our endless dream Is shattered by the hunters' silent gleam. A dusty silver glint, a cold, harsh sound Reminds us we're not safe on hallowed ground.

I trace the constellations on your skin A map of places where we could have been. Every beat of my cold, undead heart Cries out against this forced, eternal start.

Oh, these fading city lights They guard our stolen nights Two hearts beating, out of time, out of sight Forever chasing dawn, with nowhere to land Just holding tight to a love they'll never understand.

They say forever's just a lonely word For souls like ours, perpetually deterred. But even if we split, two paths diverging wide, Your phantom touch will always be my guide. Across the centuries, through blood and fear, I'll find you in the quiet, when no one's near. We're cursed to live, but blessed to love, it seems, Our home is in these hurried, waking dreams.

Oh, these fading city lights They guard our stolen nights Two hearts beating, out of time, out of sight Forever chasing dawn, with nowhere to land Just holding tight to a love they'll never understand.

Out of time, out of sight... Chasing dawn... forevermore... My love...
