Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting for a ride in the dark The night city grows Look at the horizon glow Drinking in the lights Following the neon signs Waiting for a word Looking at the milky skyline

Resurrect me from enlightened circles Crawling, I am undisguised Disconnect me from this human circus Searching for the undefined Every morning is a new beginning Burning in a sea of cries Lift em up to meet my execution Hiding from what I deny

A skyline's severance Cleave from creation's hands To break free From the ghost of me I burn it down A past life to the ground So much to feel alive To feel the tide

Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting for a ride in the dark The night city grows Look and see her eyes, they glow Drinking in the lounge Following the neon signs Waiting for a roar Looking at the mutating skyline

Rumours of glory Something is shining Like gold but better Above the dark town After the sun's gone down Two vapour trails cross the sky Catching the day's last slow goodbye Black skyline looks rich as velvet Smiles mixed with curses The crowd disperses

This broken city sky like butane on my skin And stolen from my eyes Hello Angel tell me where are you Tell me where we go from here And if the world needs something better Let's give them one more reason now You're not in this alone Let me break this

This is not the world we had in mind But we got time We are stuck on it so we can thrive But we can turn it And even though we might have lost tonight The skyline reminds us of a different time Take me back Back to the mountainside

I am the city Somewhere in the middle of the never ending noise There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats The skyline is me and the energy I'm the street you walk The language you talk The famous hotels and the cocktail bars And the funny

Fly away, skyline pigeon fly Towards the dreams You've left so very far behind For just a Skyline Pigeon Dreaming of the open Waiting for the day That he can spread his wings And fly away again Turn me loose from your hands

For my home and my English rose But my heart still beats But I'd long to be Oh, my heart still beats Across the sea By the Tennessee skyline They told me I'd find my hopes and my dreams In the bed of my true love Back where I came from
