I'm alive
To say the least
You're dead inside
Uprooting peace
Though I am enclosed
You're on the fence
I will not go
At your expense
And now a chance to open up
Is shut down
The while a curse runs wild
Yet somehow
I know you'll come through at the close, oh, oh-oh
Sinister, remote and stark
You always say you miss the stars
But when the lights come on in Central Park
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
Insecure, provoked and scarred
You always say you miss the dark
But when the lights come on in Chelsea market
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
I'm alone
No matter what
You try your most
To fill the rut
Though there is no hope
To shape and mend
I won't let go
Until the end
And now a chance to open up
Is shut down
The while a curse runs wild
Yet somehow
I know you'll come through at the close, oh, oh-oh
Sinister, remote and stark
You always say you miss the stars
But when the lights come on in Central Park
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
Insecure, provoked and scarred
You always say you miss the dark
But when the lights come on in Chelsea market
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
I'm waiting for you in the sunshine (sunshine)
I'd cry to the star, we could stay here together
'Cause all I see is the truth
The vision of you, it's all you
I'm waiting here in the sunshine
I'm praying to the star, we could stay here together
And all I see is the truth
The vision of you, it's all you
Sinister, remote and stark
You always say you miss the stars
But when the lights come on in Central Park
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
Insecure, provoked and scarred
You always say you miss the dark
But when the lights come on in Chelsea market
It steals your heart, it steals your heart
