bedlight for blueeyes - the city and the ghost lyrics
tonight i need the bright lights,
still got her face on my mind.
heading where the talk is cheap
and i’m dressed to a “t” so they won’t notice me.
it’s warm for october
and i’ve got the windows down.
the skyline whispers her promises,
the same lie each night.
but i force myself to believe…
and i swore it’d be different but how could it be?
what i came to escape is right here inside of me.
the city’s a desert
with photographic stars.
each pretty face is just a mirage,
and my mouth’s full of sand again.
but i force myself to believe,
across the river’s the cure for what’s sick inside of me.
and i swore it’d be different but how could it be?
what i came to escape is right here inside of me.
and i swore it’d be different but how could it be?
what i came to escape is right here inside of me.
i look in the mirror past the buildings, the sky’s getting light.
another piece of my innocence is the admission i paid there tonight.
slow down past her exit though it makes me sick, and i imagine her saying,
“you’re better than this… you’re better than this.”
and i swore it’d be different but how could it be?
what i came here to escape is right here inside of me.
and i swore it’d be different but how could it be?
what i came to escape is right here inside of me.
woah-woah
and i swore it’d be different
