An album-closing rock ballad about people that need help from substance and self-abuse
lyrics
Broken city lights
There's no one there around you
A storm came crashing by
Its the only thing that surrounds you
Looking back looking back as it used to be
Fade away, fade away just beyond your dreams
Oh I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know the reason
I don't wanna know I don't wanna know the reason
Chorus
Your going down the road no where
And only love can save yourself
Oh no, no your not alone
Verse 2
He's trying to fill the void
But you cant control the master
So now your passing time
To see what takes you faster
Only wish, only wish that he could succeed
Let him go, let him go its his destiny
Oh I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know the reason
I don't wanna know I don't wanna know the reason
Chorus
You were meant to be much more
And only love can save us all
Oh no, you didn't have to go
Oh no, no your not alone
Broken city lights
