City

Oh, how I love this city.
But because there must be something more.
What more could you want?
I can stand here, on the top of this frozen mountain and see the ocean, blue and calm.
But the people here are as cold as the ground I step on.
It’s hard to find yourself here while everyone’s staring.
It’s hard to find yourself when everyone looks the same.
We are all the same.
Not a smile on their face.
Not a truth in their handshake.
And what is it even that we’re all searching for?
After all, we are the makers of dreams.
The one’s you see on T.V.
Well, this town sure ain’t full of nightmares.
But that’s exactly what it is.
I’ve seen the other side and it’s quiet there.
It’s calm.
But with the trash comes intelligence.

I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
It’s not that I want to set it on fire, as much as I’d like to see the sparks burn brighter onto the cities around us.
City, surround us.
