Streets of shadows no end in sight Chasing dreams through the long night Life is hard with endless fight Seeking peace under neon light Voices echo in the dark Hearts that bear a lasting mark Lovers lost and friends apart Searching for a fresh new start In the city lights we strive Through the pain we feel alive Hopes and dreams they will survive In this place where we all thrive Stories told on every block Time slips by like a ticking clock Faces hidden behind a mask Finding strength in every task Whispers linger in the air Silent wishes everywhere Through the shadows we all roam Building dreams to call our own In the city lights we strive Through the pain we feel alive Hopes and dreams they will survive In this place where we all thrive In the city lights we strive Through the pain we feel alive Hopes and dreams they will survive In this place where we all thrive Stories told on every block Time slips by like a ticking clock Faces hidden behind a mask Finding strength in every task Whispers linger in the air Silent wishes everywhere Through the shadows we all roam Building dreams to call our own In the city lights we strive Through the pain we feel alive Hopes and dreams they will survive In this place where we all thrive
