lyrics

Broken Nights/ Faded Cities. ©

Broken nights and faded cities
How this world can be so cold
Broken nights and faded cities
It’s so hard to be alone
Looking for a kindly gesture
Looking for a helping hand
Gets so tiring not belonging
Like a bird that never lands

I see you sleep in every doorway
I see the silver turn to rust
Your painted face like some lost shaman
Go feed the fires of hell we must
But I feel the star of hope in you

Broken nights and faded cities
Feeding dreams that never end
Broken nights and faded cities
To the stars the soul ascends
But I feel the star of hope in you

Broken nights and faded cities
Feeding dreams that never end
Broken nights and faded cities
To the stars the soul ascends
Looking for a kindly gesture
Looking for a helping hand
It gets so tiring not belonging
Like a bird that cannot land

I see you sleep in every doorway
I see the silver turn to rust
Your painted face like some lost shaman
Go feed the fires of hell we must
But I feel the star of hope in you

Through the broken nights and faded cities
Broken nights and faded cities
Looking for a kindly gesture
Looking for a helping hand
Like a bird that cannot land…
