Cigarettes & Citylights
Pictures of a travel through your heart and soul 'Til it's stuck in your mind like a love song You're singing it while walking through this town alone Feeling good, feeling lost, feeling lonesome You're trying, I know you are, you're trying hard You're trying, you do your best just to not fall apart But the sadness creeps up slowly, while you're reading the news And then sticks to your face like a post-it This life seems so absurd and all that clinging onto A little mom trusts that saying: make the most of you You're trying, I know you are, you're trying hard You're trying, you do your best just to not fall apart And the cigarettes, they taste so that you're smoking like you never stop Oh, you've had your share of everything but just can't seem to get enough And it's so easy to keep moving on Searching for a place you can call your home You've been practicing all day to put a smile on your face So you won't look so tired and wasted You're saying "Hi" to everyone you meet, you're shaking their hands Yeah it's easy, you just have to fake it SongtexteYou're trying, I know you are, you're trying hard You're trying, you do your best just to not fall apart And the citylights keep singing songs that you're trying to forget Oh, you wanted to unriddle them but can't get them out of your head And you're so eager to keep moving on You're digging a new hole you can crawl in and then call it your home Your home Aus Songtexte Mania
