City of Smoke

[Verse]
City of smoke dreams lost in the air
Streetlights flicker no one seems to care
Whispers on the corner life ain't fair
Silent screams echo madness everywhere

[Verse 2]
Concrete jungle choking on despair
Broken souls wander ain't nobody there
Eyes like shadows empty hollow stare
Lost in the shuffle no room for prayer

[Chorus]
We howl at the moon searchin' for the tune
Shattered hearts mendin' 'neath the cruel monsoon
We rage 'gainst the night graspin' for the light
City of smoke ain't no end in sight

[Verse 3]
Neon signs blink but the hope is dim
Faith is fading like the sun at the brim
Caught in the undertow can't even swim
Livin' in the echoes of yesterday's hymn

[Bridge]
Rollin' thunder soundtracks of our pain
Electric fire runnin' through our vein
Chains of illusion shatter in the rain
Freedom tastes like sugar and disdain

[Chorus]
We howl at the moon searchin' for the tune
Shattered hearts mendin' 'neath the cruel monsoon
We rage 'gainst the night graspin' for the light
City of smoke ain't no end in sight
