[Lyric] Street Lights (RIFF KNIVES)

[Chorus: #93]
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’ll keep on singing not the same song
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’m singing ‘cause the nightingale’s gone

[Verse 1: #93]
What doesn’t break you makes you
Stronger that’s old news, you still want her
You will mourn her but tell your friends no problem
No longer feeling her sweet scent on your collar
The weak weeks that follow don’t call her
Your sorrow so dark it swallows your true colors
Don’t wallow in the thought she’ll be yours to tomorrow
The hope in your heart for the heavenly father
Like dope it will rot and most definitely scar you
Feeling down although it’s hard – drive
Away those memories from your hard drive
In the mean-time I’d maintain
Drooling like a dog for that cat I can’t tame
Couldn’t believe she’d trip my psyche and consciousness
When she gave me kicks like Nike sponsorships
At last I surfaced and if there’s a purpose
It’s this deep shit but she isn’t worth it
[Chorus: #93]
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’ll keep on singing not the same song
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’m singing ‘cause the nightingale’s gone

[Verse 2: #93]
You stop and think it over then go on and phone her
Pro-seeding like a permanent sperm donor
Eyes working, but your mind is lying
(In a sofa) love makes you blind
That’s an EX-aggeration, get it? It’s more like you ain’t sober
The EX marks the spot like a damn cobra
And the hangover at the least lasts for weeks
We learn to live with it but it never leaves us
She’s as gone as a car in sixty seconds
He’s alone in the dark and swiftly beckons
Indeed it’s one of life’s hard and shitty lessons
Seeing that heart in the bark and miss the essence
Of her, in winter conditions, it can go - better
Carved letters of lovers covered by snow – weather
I’m going to stand tall or not stand at all
Summer say I should be like a spring when I fall

[Chorus: #93]
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’ll keep on singing not the same song
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’m singing ‘cause the nightingale’s gone
[Chorus: #93]
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’ll keep on singing not the same song
Streetlights are shining on my way home
I’m singing ‘cause the nightingale’s gone
