[Verse]
Under the edge where the shadows creep
I sit below the towers so deep
The city hums but I'm stuck in still
Whispering your name
My heart won't heal
[Verse 2]
The skyline shines like a broken chain
Neon lights can't drown the rain
Tear drops scatter as they catch the breeze
Crying to a tune only I can seize
[Chorus]
Oh the city keeps on growing higher
But my soul is burned by yearning fire
Every floor above feels worlds away
I'm down here with the night to stay
[Verse 3]
The windows glow
A thousand lives shine
I can see them close but not make them mine
The bricks and steel are stark and cold
Without your touch
I'm losing hold
[Bridge]
The wind howls my secrets out loud
To the bustling streets
The empty crowd
I’m just a lone voice lost in the cracks
Wishing you'd find me
Bring me back
[Chorus]
Oh the city keeps on growing higher
But my soul is burned by yearning fire
Every floor above feels worlds away
I'm down here with the night to stay
