Streetlights flicker like a heartbeat fading
Coffee-cup ghosts on the dashboard glow
Billboards preach what the soul’s still craving
Every face I pass feels like someone I know
Neon prayers in the midnight rain
Trying to wash off yesterday’s pain
We’re just ghosts of the city learning how to feel
Running through the static till the silence turns real
If the night remembers maybe mercy will too
We’re just ghosts of the city finding me and you
Sirens sing like a broken choir
Windows hum with a sleepless tune
Dreams are paper set on fire
But I’m still walking toward the moon
Every shadow whispers your name
Love’s the only thing that still sounds the same
We’re just ghosts of the city learning how to feel
Running through the static till the silence turns real
If the night remembers maybe mercy will too
We’re just ghosts of the city finding me and you
Let the skyline fade to gray
I won’t let our light decay
Hold my hand in the afterglow
Where the lost hearts go
We’re just ghosts of the city but I still believe
Love can bloom where the broken grieve
If the night remembers then maybe we’ll too
Ghosts of the city becoming something new
