Skylines and Turnstiles Songtext
von My Chemical Romance

You′re not in this alone
Let me break this awkward silence
Let me go!
Go on record
Be the first to say I'm sorry
Hear me out
And if you take me down
Or would you lay me out?
And if the world needs something better
Let′s give them one more reason now

We walk in single file
We light our rails and punch our time

Ride escalators colder than a cell


This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me, where we go from here
This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello angel, tell me
Where are you?

Tell me where we go from here
Tell me we go from...

And in this moment we can't close the lids
On burning eyes
Our memories blanket us with friends we know
Like fallout vapor
Steel corpses stretch out towards an ending sun

Scorched and black
It reaches in and tears your flesh apart
As ice cold hands rip into your heart

That's if you′ve still got one that′s left
Inside that cave you call a chest

And after seeing what we saw
Can we still reclaim our innocence?
And if the world needs something better
Let's give them one more reason now


This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
And stolen from my eyes
Hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me, where we go from here
This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me where we go from here
Tell me where we go from here...
