As I enter these streets
And the city blooms from its cocoon
And the rain hits from the ground
Just like a drum
Lights wild like hair
And the streetlamps stand proud
And the devil's drink make these nights
So numb
I wake from my slumber
And I raise my glass and my feet
The casting shadows of the room look dead
And you said, this is the sweetest red wine I ever tasted in my goddamn life
But I just can't sleep in this bed
I curse at the moon
And I scream at the stars
And I tell you all the secrets
Of my broken heart
I hear your voice of reason
But I'm begging of you, Lord
We'll share marlborough lights and city nights
And we'll play your favourite chord
You take me by the river
Where I watch my heroes drown
Where they sing in harmony
And they wash away their masks of disguise
Cold goodbyes
