LYRIC FOR SALE

By Amber laker

Too many faces.
Lost in the crowd.
Walking through the neon, chasing the sound
Lost in the biggest world I’ve ever found
Are we just strangers passing in the night?
Or are we waiting for the morning light?
Midnight subway, rushing on the train
Blur of the faces, raindrops on the pane
Millions of people living on the grid
Chasing the things that our parents never did
Concrete canyons reaching for the stars
Flashing store windows and overtaking cars
Everyone’s moving, no one’s looking back
Trying to keep our footsteps on the track
It's a massive world, it's a heavy spin
Hard to see where you and I begin
We look at the skyline, watch the towers glow
But what happens to the people down below?
This whole world is a beautiful maze!
We’re just wandering through the haze!
Looking for a spark in a crowded room
Before the sun chases away the gloom
Hold onto me while the planet turns
Catching fire while the city burns!
In the maze... ma-ma-maze...
Neon glow.
Strangers in the night...
Let it go.
Digital heartbeat, static on the phone
In a city of millions, you can feel alone
We build up walls just to keep it all sane
But we’re all just looking for the sun through the rain
Fast lane living, never slowing down
Trying to make a mark on a restless town
But tonight I don't care about the global scheme
I just want to get lost in a local dream
It's a massive world, it's a heavy spin
Hard to see where you and I begin
We look at the skyline, watch the towers glow
But what happens to the people down below?
This whole world is a beautiful maze!
We’re just wandering through the haze!
Looking for a spark in a crowded room
Before the sun chases away the gloom
Hold onto me while the planet turns
Catching fire while the city burns!
Lost in the world.
Beautiful maze...
Just you and me.
