You fill that empty space
and you let me in
you let me breathe
No I can't let go,
need you so
You're the heart beat
of my city

I look west as
I lay my city
to rest wonder
how something so ugly
can be the prettiest
There's no dusty concrete,
no graffiti on the street
No demands,
no promises to keep
Only dying light
to guide the wander
of my feet
Orange, color of skies
before it dies
The brief moment
between two worlds
a they collide
Stand as the witness
of something
equal to all

You fill that empty space
and you let me in
you let me breathe
No I can't let go, need
you so
You're the heart beat
of my city

Bus stop 2 a.m., rain
pools at my feet
The wet skies, the wet
streets and wet eyes
It all fast-forwards
though I thought
I pushed rewind
Play it over in my head,
who said what,
when and why
A breath of fresh air
after smoke filled rooms
Clear my head, watch the
bus leave the curb
Get up the lifeline of
streets resuscitates me
Step after step cease to
hate what I've been lately
You make things concrete
for me
It's less hard to feel pain,
even when you're scarred
Gaze at the street lights
flicker and consider
How something free can be
so valuable to me
Both born to be rebuilt
time after time
As the rain keeps falling
my spirits rise
I'll go on and on and on,
on and on
Energy turns into
paths of calm

You fill that empty space
and you let me in
you let me breathe
No I can't let go,
need you so
You're the heart beat of
my city
