pollï says:
"This was the first song I've made that involved lyrics, and it wasn't too shabby either. Im very proud to see how far it has come."

lyrics

i know what the city lights
do to the night sky
when no one's lookin'
but i can't decide

✧✦✧✦✧

‘cause though i crave the constellations
the fog above my head, illuminated
i’m not sure how to phrase it
it’s not a dream

i want to see everything
and i want to breathe easily
and i want to let the night sky bleed

‘cause i’ve seen what the city lights
do to the night sky
i keep an eye, out
i can’t decide, somehow

‘cause though i crave the constellations
glass towers above my head, illuminated
i don’t know how to phrase it

‘cause though i crave the constellations
the rain, about my head, illuminated
i’m not sure how to say it
i don’t know how to phrase it

✧✦✧✦✧
