Silent City Songtext
von Mad Hatter's Daughter
Silent City Songtext
We used to rule these streets at 4am
In the city that never sleeps we′d laugh and stay
Awake cause 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 shinin; the screamin sirens
Sunset skyline; watch the moon die by the sunrise
In the rush of the traffic we felt so alive
We burned out
Music died down
And all I hear is quiet
It's a silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone cause you′re not with me
In this silent city
Follow your voice while I'm walking through the dark
I should turn around, but I head to our favourite 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
And all I hear is quiet
It's a silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human 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 quiet
It's a silent city
That's what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone cause you′re not with me
In this silent city
In the city that never sleeps we′d laugh and stay
Awake cause 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 shinin; the screamin sirens
Sunset skyline; watch the moon die by the sunrise
In the rush of the traffic we felt so alive
We burned out
Music died down
And all I hear is quiet
It's a silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone cause you′re not with me
In this silent city
Follow your voice while I'm walking through the dark
I should turn around, but I head to our favourite 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
And all I hear is quiet
It's a silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human 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 quiet
It's a silent city
That's what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Silent city
That′s what kills me
All the same sounds
Just background
Words unspoken
Torn and broken
Human noises
All these voices
Might as well be gone cause you′re not with me
In this silent city
