The City Is At Standstill Lyrics

I know this world is vicious darling, let's make tracks
Now we'll black out all the city lights and drink 'til we both grow numb
And lay down to sleep, I feel like I ran all day

Then maybe everything will stop for one night at last
Your eyes are looking bright girl, like fireflies caught in a glass
You scrub up pretty well, all dressed in your finery

And how will they speak of us when the night is gone?
The incessant whisper in your ear that haunted you too long
How you shivered, as the wind shook through the alleyways
And boxcars so let's dance, we like spectres drifting into the dark
Oh I know a place we can go

I know this world is vicious darling, let's make tracks
Now we'll burn up every history book and start our lives here
Drink up, forget all about the loss that a lifetime brought our wayLiam Frost - The City Is At Standstill - http://motolyrics.com/liam-frost/the-city-is-at-standstill-lyrics.html

End the violence and our fictitious war
For every crooked politician there's a thousand more
Drink up, forget all about the loss that a lifetime brought our way

And all at once my eyes were wide, love
Filled my world with light, oh love
Filled my world with light

Can you see me?
Can you see me?
Can you see me?
Can you see me?

I know this world is vicious darling, let's make tracks
Now we'll black out all the city lights and drink 'til we both grow numb
Then lay down to sleep, I feel like I ran all day
