When that neon skyline cuts across my eyes, I just wanna die.
All those endless nights and big city bright lights, bloodshot goodbyes.
If I thought of you for a minute I might cry but I don’t wanna die.
But at this point, my tears would be pure whiskey, desert dry.
Well I’m going to Heartbreak for a while,
To fall in love or just to fight,
I need to feel something tonight,
Like love, like love, like love.
Sweet Manhattan, settling the shake, slows down my mind.
Numbness to replace the racing pace, deep breaths, unwind.

In the dark of the evening
i will be your friend
in the dark of the evening
i will hold your hand
in the dark of the evening
don't let me stand
in the dark of the evening
let me be the end
Oh don't you turn away
and leave me here fighting
at the end of the day who will know
what you were hiding
you want to see it work
but you won't resist the hurt
Turn to me now, don't leave,
not while the fire is lighting
Oh nothing comes to easy
I'll tell you how it feels
at the end of the day who can say
that it was too real when your words are
