City Lights

Lyric i say i’m doing okay these days got good at faking my face laugh with people i barely know just so i don’t go home alone but every night hits differently when the city quiets down on me thousands of lights outside my car still can’t tell me where you are and everybody’s moving on while i’m stuck replaying us or maybe just replaying what i wanted us to be so i drive through crowded streets alone trying to outrun thoughts of you but your name keeps filling up my phone even when there’s nothing coming through and i hate how much i need you still like my heart forgot how to work alone i keep loving you silently while this whole city makes me feel invisible late night coffee, empty trains same old songs, same old pain i keep pretending i moved on but i still look for you in everyone funny how a crowded room can make somebody feel more alone and every conversation fades the second someone says your name maybe i got too attached maybe you became my home too fast now every road feels wrong somehow without you around so i drive through neon midnight skies with tired eyes and a heavy chest telling myself i’ll be alright while missing you eats me to death and i know you’ll never notice it how much of me still belongs to you guess i’ll keep loving you quietly like lonely people always do the city never really sleeps and neither do i when it comes to you
