Lyrics

Storyteller

Come turn out the lights
And watch the sun go down
It's time to find your fight
It's time we lived or drown

So sweep the evening clean
I invite it in
Cause you are the sign
That i might not win

It's a vicious cyle
You're losing it fast
But everything is funny
In a city of glass (2x)

Fences and roads
A lifetime explodes
A heart to choke
Ask yourself this every day
Ask yourself this every day

Can you heal ?
Yourself ?
Cause i would like to be like that
I would like to be like that

It's a vicious cyle
You're losing it fast
But everything is funny
In a city of glass (2x)
