[Verse]
Dirt and soot
Smoke and fumes
Windows are broken
The streets are hot
The outskirts of the city
Darkness without candles
[Chorus]
Darkness around
Darkness within
A city that whispers
A city of sin
Darkness around
It calls me in
[Verse 2]
Rust and ash
Concrete scars
Dreams get lost
Beneath the stars
A river of headlights
Flows like despair
[Chorus]
Darkness around
Darkness within
A city that whispers
A city of sin
Darkness around
It calls me in
[Bridge]
The clock is ticking but it’s stuck in place
The skyline’s a shadow that won’t show its face
A heartbeat echoes from a distant track
Once you leave here
You never come back
[Chorus]
Darkness around
Darkness within
A city that whispers
A city of sin
Darkness around
It calls me in
