City Lights

I can put up a show
So spectacular and divine
But there's a thin line
Between rich and poor
The first lady and a whore
And who will I play it for
Who will I play it for

I can put up a show
So simple and lame
It's far from the same
But the line is thin
Between failure and success
There's either more or less
You're either out or in
The line is thin

Under the city lights I fail
Under the city lights I'm pale
I'm pale

I can fake a smile
And hide that I'm torn
And turn the other cheek
Try to appear cold
As you strike the second blow
Beware other one
Who throws the first stone

Under the city lights I fail
Under the city lights I'm pale
I'm pale

Under the city lights I fail
And to the city lights I pray
