City Lights

One question, tell me where you're gonna sleep tonight Right here under the city lights A few friends still owe you favours So couch surfing Next meal is uncertain, your pride hurting Left a trail of lies and the weights of the burdens Pay cheques like a waste of breath, but breathe easy Smell the taint of death Living rough, yeah, living's tough When you hide from your past, leaving lives in the dust Yeah, six sides to a story But sick minds can't find any glory So move on with the fire you started Wither away, these lies are departed Tomorrow is a new day So, new promises are made Go to sleep, wake up And just have a little bit of that to make the pain go away I can see you sleeping there Does anybody know your name Does anybody really care Does anybody feel your pain Tell me how do you feel Do you have memories still Where you gonna sleep tonight Right here under the city lights Generational pain All from a tainted bloodstrain Dark days, mind play, I don't want it But can I save my kids from it? Is it learned or hereditary I think I feel the darkness possessing me They told me I'd be like you in the end Homeless, no job and no friends Hey, what's your address? Can I pop past, get some stuff off my chest? Oh, that's right, what's the point I don't think that'd bring either of us any joy Man to man, yo, I think I understand Some of us aren't built to feed a clan A day in your shoes and see how I go That's a hard old life, what do I know? They say you don't know what you got till it's gone What if there was What if there was nothing there in the first place What if there's no home to find you at I can see you sleeping there Does anybody know your name? Does anybody really care? Does anybody feel your pain? Tell me how do you feel.. Dad? Do you have memories still? Dad? Where you gonna sleep tonight? Dad Right here under the city lights
