I'm drawn to the city's lights
I take comfort in her arms.
Locked in her hold
I fell that I am finally home.
But it was the sound of the sirens
I lost it all.
Awoke to the silence
I recall everything, now.
I failed you.
I admit I was the one that turned away
Hold the line.
I will return some day.
In the heat of the moon she laid on the ground
Asked for my hand, said she heard a sound
It was just the beating of her heart
slowing down.
