The street is like a movie set with the people carefully placed
The sights and sounds of a cardboard town are hidden from my face
I casually lose my senses to the allure of electricity
I've never felt a part of something bigger than me
I can play the outsider searching for too long
You can be my tour guide, won't you teach me right from wrong
Huddled under the Damen Station, people are passing through
Will you follow me one day as I followed you?
Haven't I told you what you mean?
Haven't I showed you what you mean to me?
As we're walking side by side, our eyes filled with the night
A fatal blow to the strangle hold that squeezes me too tight
Climbing into the photobooth we'll raise the bottles high
I only wish in retrospect I hadn't closed my eyes
Laughing loud as children with no need to justify
This once-forgotten youthfulness that makes me feel alive
Imagine standing atop those building looking down at us
How can something so small seem so serious?
Haven't I told you what you mean?
Haven't I showed you what you mean to me?
I don't think I've changed much for the better
I don't think I've changed that much at all
I can't tell if I'm getting closer to or further from where it is I want to be
But I don't mind
I don't think I've changed much for the better
I don't think I've changed that much at all
I lie awake and I watch you breathing out and in and out again
The sunlight brushes against your face and I smile
