City Of Dreams

Walking the road
Painting a town that I don't know
The lights burn my soul
But for tonight I'll call it home

They're screaming my name
All of the places look the same
The songs never change
But the music will always light my flame

When the curtains fall and the smoke and mirrors have gone

I catch my breathe as I live with my heart in my hands
I give what I get, this is me, this is all that I am
No place to hide, all my fears have been ripped out of me
A one-way ride to my life in the city of dreams

One day at a time
I'm living for what is left to find
They can spit out their lines
While I'm clinging to dreams locked in my mind

The thoughts never fade
These pulsing beats run right through my veins
And the critics will reign
But this is the life that I have made

When the lights go down and no one else is around

I catch my breathe as I live with my heart in my hands
I give what I get, this is me, this is all that I am
No place to hide, all my fears have been ripped out of me
A one-way ride to my life in the city of dreams

Oh, oh, all my hopes and dreams
They're bursting at the seams
Making me live for more than I can ever be
But when the music fades and they forget the name
I will still be the same

When the curtains fall and the smoke and mirrors have gone

I catch my breathe as I live with my heart in my hands
I give what I get, this is me, this is all that I am
No place to hide, all my fears have been ripped out of me
A one-way ride to my life in the city of dreams
