the city - ellevator lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve grown a bit smug
partaking in the drug
i used to so ardently despise
i’ve played it safe
kept to my kin
wrapped my self in a wedding gown
made of my indecision
silk from lovely vision
of a place that i’ll never go
i’ll be pregnant with envy
let it overcome me
live like a spectre with seed to sow
[pre*chorus]
every woman’s soul that searches
every silent word that curses
every fallen star that ever fell
every mother’s heart that’s broken
temptations left unspoken
every coin that i tossed in the well

[chorus]
maybe i was wrong
and the lights of the city are cold to me
and maybe i was scared
that i couldn’t be all that you want from me

[verse 2]
so please, no more words
no advice or new methods
because i’m dying of good intentions
your sleek optimism
and your practiced charm—
they break me like a promise
when we were young and blind
drunk on communion wine
with my doubts [?] your child
oh, don’t you remember?
so young and tender
she’ll be a runner just like me…
you might also like
[pre*chorus]
every woman’s soul that searches
every silent word that curses
every fallen star that ever fell
every mother’s heart that’s broken
temptations left unspoken
every coin that i tossed in the well

[chorus]
maybe i was wrong
and the lights of the city are cold to me
and maybe i was scared
that i couldn’t be all that you want from me
but maybe you were right
and it’s time i let go of all these childish things
and maybe you were wrong
to hold up your hands and let the silence in

[bridge]
your footsteps by the door
my body on the floor
don’t know what we’re fighting for
don’t know what we’re fighting for
i try to fall asleep
the sickness runs too deep
don’t know what we’re fighting for
don’t know what we’re fighting for
[outro]
don’t know what we’re fighting for
don’t know what we’re fighting
fighting
fighting
fighting for
i don’t know what we’re fighting for
don’t know what we’re fighting for
