I can’t hear myself anymore
In this switchable city

Out on the balcony
Lights shinning up from the city
The city below
Down in the subway car
Steps thunder down from the alleys above
But it’s just you and me

I catch your breath
I hold it in my weakening hands
Protect it from the mists
Rising from the sewer gates

No, I can't hear myself anymore
In this switchable city

Out on the frozen streets
The echo of a thousand feet
Strangers pass by
Down in dark tunnels
Headlights flash and rumble by
But it's just you and me

I breathe your breath
I fold it in my withering lungs
I dream it from your lips
Form it in well worn shapes
Out on the balcony
Lights shining up from the city
The city below
Down in the subway car
Steps thunder down from the alleys above
But it’s just you and me
