Streets now an empty space
Neon signs buzzing on my face
See shadows stretching in the dark
Lone figures walking going out like sparks
There on an old bench a stranger
Looking for peace while shadows linger
There's no voice but a silent whisper
No one can hear the cry of a drifter
So please let's see the real face
Let's see the city lying behind a mask of "why"
Yes so please let's call her real name
And maybe she'll hear out our cry
Days are passing by living this lie
Not knowing what we're looking for
Grey these walls are grey and there's no sky
There is no hope there is no soar
I know somewhere there must be more
A busker is singing for no one
Bittersweet nights and days without sun
Be no shy don't flee from the light
Don't seek for embrace in the arms of the night
So please let's see the real face
Let's see the city lying behind a mask of "why"
Yes so please let's call her real name
And maybe she'll hear out our cry
Days are passing by living this lie
Not knowing what we're looking for
Grey these walls are grey and there's no sky
There is no hope there is no soar
I know somewhere there must be more
