It's the start of a bright new day
as the light finds its way through the curtains
at the end of my night
I'm alive in a city of dead people rising for work
And as they ride through the cycle, the machine revving up,
I feel a little suicidal, just not high enough to jump
Oh who am I kidding now?
My plan to die young, somehow is just a memory now

It's daylight in the city, "just hold me,"
she said, "it's been a long night in the city,
just hold me, hold me..."

I had an old friend who said I [bad word] like today is the last of my sick, sorry little life
And as I stared into my own eyes in the mirror by my bed,
that's when I realized nobody ever told me that,
I'm just afraid of dying

She told me everything is gonna be all right
It’s been a long night
Everything is gonna be just fine
