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 heartbeat 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 as they collide
Stand as the witness of something equal to all

And it hits hard,
It's hard to understand
Soon it all catches up with you

Orange merges into blue
As the street lights go on
And the night becomes another song for someone else to

Sing
It goes on and on and on, on and on
On and on and on, on and on

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 heartbeat 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 can 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
