I'm back in this city of streetlights and dust
Here from the asphalt and sidewalks we trust
Played to fall in love, but I just fall in lust
A bloody disappointment, cool to the touch
My greatest temptation on the back of my mind
Your hands on my ego are all that I find
Seeing your face, I'm falling again
Longing for time, I've got some to spend
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone, gone
I like to pretend that my mistakes aren't seen
They stay on the other side, the grass is green
Getting what I deserve cause I care too much
The unpaved roads in my mind reflect as such
Breathe the filth of the city as it passes by
Inhaling that perfume and look in your eye
Waiting for the panic all at once
I claim I'm the same, but I put on a front
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone
Morning comes and I open my eyes
I dream of that phrase, don't need the disguise
Glances and shivers just call me a fool
Keeping me warm, it must be you
My voice is distorted, compressed, and pitched up
A blanket of sound to cover it up
But I can still get my words to you
Facing again, I've got time to lose
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone
And I don't mind if there's traffic
We can turn the radio on
Hold on to you, like a bad habit
Turn my head and you might be gone, gone
Watching the stars go by, even in morning light tells me it's time for a change
Changing my way of life, telling myself I try, it's still a lie all the same
It's still a lie, it's still a lie, it's still a lie all the same
It's still a lie, it's still a lie, it's still a lie all the same
It's still a lie, it's still a lie, it's still a lie all the same
It's still a lie, it's still a lie, it's still a lie all the same
