[00:02.54]We’d run right through those nights
[00:09.60]I’ll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
[00:13.74]There was madness in the meaning, never laughless
[00:17.52]We were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
[00:20.48]This city never died.
[00:23.96]I’ll fly, no proof, those heights
[00:30.96]I’ll never find another chance to say “hey, thanks for saving my life”
[00:35.04]I was hopeless, it was stinging, running roadless
[00:38.85]We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
[00:41.99]This city never died.
[00:46.50]What was the root of it all? … I couldn’t say.
[00:48.59]Used to jump and then fall, rugged and cliched.
[00:51.44]Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
[00:53.66]No use in trying to find friends, cuz in the end nobody sticks around
[00:56.51]It’s when you shoved yourself into a crowded place
[00:59.02]That you turned around and found yourself in love in outer space
[01:01.64]Cue the reckless nights, no strings, laughing at our own dreams…
[01:05.45]Just what the hell was so funny?
[01:07.14]Bark up the wrong tree, stumble, used to falling great heights
[01:09.58]Amidst a concrete jungle, singing cuz it felt right
[01:12.08]We mixed the ennui and troubles, rhyming our discontent
[01:14.83]And though it’s history, I can’t forget the time that we spent
[01:17.48]Convinced that this could mean another end, exists between real and pretend
[01:20.32]A twisted alter-fiction where I missed my chance, did not ascend and
[01:23.77]Disappearing into the mist of “never happened”
[01:25.32]Is the me that I can never befriend.
[01:28.23]… I let it go.
[01:29.96]Fade in, fade out
[01:32.29]This crazy dream
[01:34.100]Without a direction, floating aimlessly
[01:39.38]There’s nothing left back there for me
[01:45.70]Breathe in, but it won’t stop the rain from pouring
[01:49.100]We’d run right through those nights
[01:56.23]I’ll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
[02:00.36]There was madness in the meaning, never laughless
[02:03.81]We were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
[02:06.92]This city never died.
[02:09.90]But was there ever a soul inside?
[02:11.88]Chasing fireflies between the soaring high-rises
[02:14.19]Left a trail behind, defined it “wasted time of our lives”
[02:16.69]Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
[02:18.95]Thinks an office is a coffin until off is where you’re laid
[02:21.57]Yet a thought persists, an optimist who ought to be afraid
[02:24.04]Saw the “nothing wrong” in writing songs behind the lonely shade
[02:26.90]Is the world a sadder place without the words that you conveyed?
[02:29.47]When the ladder fell and shattered every bar that we had played?
[02:32.47]Does it matter in the end the sound diminished and decayed
[02:35.02]And your friends grew tired of fantasy, you’re wishing they had stayed?
[02:37.48]You don’t get to say “I miss you”, you watched your heroes fade
[02:40.24]Into the rear view-mirror of the villain you portrayed
[02:42.74]Stop the pity party, listen, you don’t get to be dismayed
[02:45.40]You don’t get to be emotional, feel blessed you got it made
[02:47.100]These the best of years of life because you chose to make a trade
[02:50.74]Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this
[02:53.44]What is there to miss?
[02:55.12]Fade in, fade out
[02:57.60]This hazy dream
[03:00.23]Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
[03:04.62]There’s nothing left back there for me
[03:11.10]Pretend it’s the end of a made up story
[03:15.24]I’ll fly, no proof, those heights
[03:21.98]I’ll never find another chance to say “hey, thanks for saving my life”
[03:25.52]I was hopeless, it was stinging, driving roadless
[03:29.35]We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
[03:32.09]This city never died.
[03:35.06]I’ll say goodbye to the soul inside
[03:37.31]And yet somehow, there was romance in our self-hate
[03:40.29]“We’ve got no chance” in this light maze
[03:43.16]But let’s hold hands through the night haze
[03:46.14]We’ll run so fast ’til the school chime, ’til the train runs
[03:49.48]We know it’s time, we’re the sane ones
[03:52.04]Waking up now to the “real life”
[03:54.62]Let me daydream ’til the next night
[03:57.22]I’ll keep waiting
[04:01.92]I’ll keep waiting for you
[04:29.98]Waking up now to my real life
[04:32.15]Let me daydream ’til the next flight
[04:34.72]Drowning so long, I got older
[04:37.28]Now the crowd’s gone
[04:38.86]Is it over?
[04:40.34]Is it over…?
