[Verse 1]
Shining violence
Shining victim
In the headlights
Shining pistol
Shimmer diamonds
From a necklace
Faceless driver
Drive away
[Chorus]
In the city
In the city
In the city
In the city
[Verse 2]
In the city
In the street
In the doorway
You can see them
Midnight walkers
Midnight eyes
Midnight footsteps
Midnight prize
[Chorus]
In the city
In the city
In the city
In the city
[Verse 3]
Concrete river
I hear your voice
Concrete river
I see your face
Whisper to me
Ask me
"Why?"
Shining violence
[Chorus]
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
In the city (Shining violence)
[Chorus 2]
Can you call it? See it coming
Just enough to tell a story
'Bout a portrait of a young girl
Waiting for a new year
[Verse 1]
All you ever wanted
Is it getting away?
Visions of a feeling
The footsteps at bay
You were getting stronger
Memories again
Now you're open wider
It's better this way
[Chorus 1]
All I wanted comes in colors
Vanish every day
I keep these promises, these promises
Stranger things will come before you
Always out of the way
We keep these promises, these promises
[Bridge]
Won't you write a letter
On the page
In your own way?
Write it in a letter
On the page
It's your own way
[Verse 2]
You were getting wiser
It's better this way
Faces in the mirror
Memories again
Now look to a feeling
It's lighter than breath
All you ever wanted
Is it getting away?
I've been watchin' you for some time
Can't stop starin' at those ocean eyes
Burning cities and napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes
I've been walkin' through a world gone blind
Can't stop thinkin' of your diamond mind
Careful creature made friends with time
He left her lonely with a diamond mind
And those ocean eyes
I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now
I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now
In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die?
Two lovers entwined pass me by
And heaven knows I'm miserable now
I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now
In my life
Oh, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die?
Love
I said real love, it's like feeling no fear
When you're standing in the face of danger
'Cause you just want it so much
A touch
From your real love
It's like heaven taking the place of something evil
And lettin' it burn off from the rush
Yeah, yeah
