The city lights
Block the sounds
Of thoughts
Thoughts that become loud
They break you down
Dig at the scars
Bleeding out
Choking on the smoke of their cigar
You're not able to hide
In contrast to being ever so visible
To the vast world you've been placed upon
Frustrated in not being able
Cant quite breath correctly
The lights stealing your soul
As it dances around your mind
Not yet numb, a little too cold
In a time of your own
Where you find yourself
Clutching to the stars
As they disappear when you cry out for help
Yet as much as you hate them, the city lights make up for the absence
Of your support
As your breath catches
The city lights become your escort
