City Lights by Nurul Huda

Turn on, turn off

Turn off my heart tonight

Looking for another way out

Turn on, turn off

Turn off the light tonight

Looking for somebody to save me from myself

From myself

Save me from myself

From myself

Save me from myself

Burn bright just like the city tonight

Switch on, switch off

Switch off my mind tonight

Searching for a conversation

Switch on, switch off

Switch off the light tonight

Searching for somebody to save me from you

From you

Save me from you

From you

Save me from you

Burn up, burn bright, just like the city

I showed my scars to the world

But all I get are salted wounds

I shoved myself into the corner of the room

I would kill the city lights

If I weren’t so drunk tonight

And I would kill the city lights

If I wasn’t so dark inside
