Lyrics The New Cities

The New Cities

Modern Ghosts

Once it starts It’s coming down

But I don’t want to be around

Won’t you come and go away with me?

Once you start to realize

No one’s waiting by your side

I’ll watch you slowly fall apart

Nobody knows just what to call me

I’m at a low, I’m living in a dream

Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay

Right here with my fears

And I know you won’t be leaving

But all my thoughts are half the world away

Flash a smile when you say

That there will be a better day

Won’t you come and go away with me?

Broken mirror in front of me

Distorted views are all I see

Watch me as I fall apart

Nobody knows just what to call me

I’m at a low, I’m living in a dream

Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay

Right here with my fears

And I know you won’t be leaving

But all my thoughts are half the world

All my thoughts are half the world away

I know you like the way you look tonight

You said I’ve read you like a book, you’re right

I know you like the way you look tonight

You said I’ve read you like a book, you’re right

Nobody knows just what to call me

I’m at a low, I’m living in a dream

Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay

Right here with my fears

And I know you won’t be leaving

But all my thoughts are half the world

All my thoughts are half the world away
