Lyrics
Streets are uneven and sidewalks are heaving
And I don’t know what to believe
Streetlamp is flickering, sunset is sinking
Lights burning up the marquee
But here in the shadows, everything’s transposed
And it’s getting harder to see
So I, I’ll walk you home
The night is bitter and cold
So I, I’ll walk you home
Tonight we won’t alone
Alleyways whistle, shard glass and thistle
Trees have let go of their leaves
Bruised and we’re battered,
Mentally scattered, a playlist that plays on repeat
Waxing and Waning, look down at the pavement
Life happens in the between
So I, I’ll walk you home
The night is bitter and cold
So I, I’ll walk you home
Tonight we won’t alone
It waxes and wanes
Keep dulling the pain
Nobody’s wondering where I am
A tug on my sleeve
You look at me
I’m left wondering who I am
Streets are uneven and sidewalks are heaving
And I don’t know what to believe
Streetlamp is flickering, sunset is sinking
Lights burning up the marquee
But here in the shadows, everything’s transposed
And it’s getting harder to see
So I, I’ll walk you home
The night is bitter and cold
And I, I’ll walk you home
Tonight we won’t alone
So I, I’ll walk you home
The night is bitter and cold
And I, I’ll walk you home
Tonight we won’t alone
