guard petal - light pollution lyrics

Loading...

been smoking my secrets
living with some regrets
that cling to me like the stale scent of too many cigarettes

fade into the background
like this song on the stereo
play it over and over and over again, ’till it’s time to hit the road

take my coat and turn to leave
say goodbye as the door creaks
but no one turns, and no one sees until i’m on the street

there’s 16 city blocks between
my work and my front door
that’s 16 blocks to wonder what i even do this for

when it’s just me
it’s just me
and the allеy cats, the sewer rats and thе cracks in the concrete

i walk home
beneath the stars that i can’t see
& think about moving out to the country
cause i think that this city hates me

i’ll trade streetcar tracks and paved bike paths
for back lane dirt covered roads
and parking lots for fields in which
to plant myself and grow
into the girl who’s lyrics ring out
mix with the summer storms
out west beyond the big glass mountains
of the city i was born

and when i cry i’ll be alone
save for the touch of mother moon
who’s gentle light always calms me down
through the window in my room

where i hide away from everything
the second i get in
i hold this dream from everyone
close to my heart like it’s a sin

it’s a petty thing to think about
leaving all the ones who care
but it’s hard not to dream
when i look up and all the stars ain’t there

it’s just me
when it’s just me
& the alley cats, the sewer rats and the road beneath my feet

i walk home
beneath the stars that i can’t see
& think about moving out to the country
cause i know that this city hates me
it’s just me
when it’s just me
and the stars above my head
smoking my regrets all alone
