Does anyone have the time to bring me down?
And can I sleep
All night long
To the drums of the city rain?Just make it up
'Cause I'm awake
All night longTo the drums of the city rain
And brother if you have the chance to pick me up?
And can I sleep
On your couch
To the pound of the ache and pain?
Oh, in my head
'cause I'm awake
All night long
To the drums of the city rain
The lights we chase
The nights we steal
The things that we take
To make us feel thisI can't go back
Don't think I will
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still
Hear the drums of the city rainDoes anyone have the guts to shut me up?
'Cause I believe
That every night
There's a chance we can walk away
So hold on tight
Because I won't
Wait too long
In the drums of the beating rain
'Cause the nights don't last
And we leave alone
Will you drive me back?
Can you take me home?
The lights we chase
The nights we stealThe things that we take
To make us feel this
I can't go back
Don't think I will
I won't sleep tonight as long as I stillHear the drums of the city rain
Faces I don't know
I am tired in the glow
Of the freezing club
Keep me breathing don't
Make the lights come back
Can you take me home?
We all need this whenWe leave alone
Remember when you and I would make things up?
So many nights
Just take me down
To the place we would hear them play
I miss that sound
'Cause now we don't
Sing so loud
To the drums of the city rain
The lights we chase
The nights we steal
The things that we take
To make us feel this
I can't go back
I don't think I will
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still
Hear the drums of the city rain
Like strangers laugh and like subways feel
Things I'm trying to break
Oh, just wait until this is all we have to keep us ill
I won't breathe tonight as long as I still
Hear the drums of the city rain
