City of Shadows Lyrics

Midnight feel's so cold, on the northern line it's the last train home,
It's a long, long ride when you're riding alone,
You don't cry 'cause you think you're too strong,

Oh many men crumble, I feel the pain,
But the city lights call me, screaming my name,
I wanna go back where they know my name, but it pulls me back again.

(Chourus)
City of shadows I'm lost in the night,
How can I follow where the sun doesn't shine,
We ain't no city of angels, but we still try,
'Cause you can't hide from the grind.

I got no time, they say I move too slow,
In this pace of life can make a young girl feel old,
They'll drag you down, and then stain your soul,
I got a keep moving, moving before they swallow me whole.

Oh many men they crumble, I feel that pain,
But this is the lights call me screaming my name,
And when I go back home, they tell me I've changed,
It pulls me back again.

City of shadows I'm lost in the night,
Tell me how can I follow where the sun doesn't shine?
We ain't no city of angels, but we still try,
Ya can't hide from the grind,
Ya can't hide from the grind,
(Can't hide from the grind, ohwoe)

You know this is a man's world,
(This is a mans world)
And it makes a lonely place for a girl,
But she who must will
(Oh, yeah, ohhhowoe!)

I know this city of shadows,
I feel lost in the night,
Tell me how can I follow where the sun doesn't shine,
We ain't no city of angels but we, we will try!
Ya can't hide from the grind,
I said ya can't hide from the grind,
I said ya can't hide from the grind.
