Lost in the City

[Verse] Lost among the skyscrapers, I'm barely ten years old, Concrete rivers flowing, but this heart feels so cold, Neon lights are flashing, but they never guide me home, Each face is just a stranger's, and I'm wandering alone. [Chorus] I've been searching every corner, in the alleys and the night, Hoping for a whisper or a flicker of your light, Mama, Papa, where’d you go, you left me in my dreams, Now I’m just a lost child, in this city’s broken seams. [Verse 2] Every shadow feels familiar, but they’re never who I seek, In the noise of honking taxis, my cries are growing weak, Children chase their laughter, while I chase empty air, Looking for the love that vanished, whispering a prayer. [Chorus] I've been searching every corner, in the alleys and the night, Hoping for a whisper or a flicker of your light, Mama, Papa, where’d you go, you left me in my dreams, Now I’m just a lost child, in this city’s broken seams. [Bridge] Stars above are hidden, by the city's crooked spine, Their light's the only comfort, in this lonely heart of mine, Every night I close my eyes and wish to feel your touch, But morning comes, and you’re still gone, oh Lord, I miss you much. [Verse 3] Years might turn to seasons, but I'm still the child you left, Wandering through these busy streets, feeling so bereft, Memories are faded, like the wear upon my shoes, Mama, Papa, where are you, in this maze I always lose.
