Big city calling, I hear the echo outside There's something so frightening in the deep western sky I wish it was simple saying goodbye Comfort me later, for now let me cry Will cracks in the pavement bring me some sort of truth Will they find some way to remind me of you Will the train running eastbound help me remember my part Will the wish for release fill the holes in my heart The sky filled with phantoms in their towers of light And lovers so restless give themselves to the night If you cut me wide open and you looked deep inside Would you find something deeper than this worrying mind? This room is too empty and these streets are too wide And I don't have the patience for this pain to subside So I'm off to the land of litter and lights Where rats in the tunnels keep the ghosts up all night I'll learn the streets slowly, maybe find someone new We'll drink up the sunrise and wake up with the moon But I'm not so stupid, I'm not such a fool To think that I'll stop Stop thinking of you I'm not so stupid, I'm not such a fool To think that I'll stop Stop thinking of you
