Silent City

(album: Silent City - 2020)

We used to rule these streets at 4am
The city never sleeps we'd laugh
And stay awake
You'd wanna hear your mix tape
For the third time that night
While we'd joy ride the subway

We didn't mind being up all the time
We were bright lights shining
Screaming sirens
Sunset skyline
Watch the moon die by sunrise
In the rush of the traffic
We felt so alive

But we burned out
The music died down
Now all I hear is quiet

It's a silent city
That's what kills me
All the same sounds
Now just background
Going crazy
On 8th St
New York noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone 'cause you're not with me
In this silent city

Follow your voice
I walk through Central Park
I should turn around
But I head to our favorite spot
Away from the world
The only place we could talk
Now it's louder than ever
'Cause you haunt my thoughts

We burned out
Music died down
Now I hear is quiet

It's a silent city
That's what kills me
All the same sounds
Now just background
Going crazy
On 8th St
New York noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone 'cause you're not with me
In this silent city

All my friends say I'll be alright
But in my mind all I hear

Is a silent city
That's what kills me
All the same sounds
Now just background
Going crazy
On 8th St
New York noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone 'cause you're not with me
In this silent city

We burned out
The music died down
Now all I hear is quiet
