VERSUS - Lanterns Lyrics

I am so tired to think about a lover's touch in the night
I am so tired to tell myself he's gonna come around
It's hard to believe that a man can see my light when the night falls
Hard to believe that love can go knocking on your door
Stepping on higher ground
Gradation is in process but the cold gust of wind knocks you out of your senses

Then you find yourself lying on the pavement
Wishing that life can be harmless
Living is a dying process
Never gonna change the cycle's progress
Love is a cure for the broken hearted
Only the rich can afford the bottle
The damned are living in a third world country
How can love feed the damned and the starving

I am so drained with the thought of romance
I need to choose between survival and euphoric demands
It's hard to dream of a life where he kisses all your problems
Telling you he'll stay when the high becomes a downfall
Radiant from the start, darkens when the ground crumbles
The flare in his eyes begin to lose the sparkle

Then you find yourself lying on the pavement
Wishing that life can be harmless
Living is a dying process
Never gonna change the cycle's progress
Love is a cure for the broken hearted
Only the rich can afford the bottle
The damned are living in a third world country
How can love feed the damned and the starving

I see the lanterns in the city
I don't need a lover to help me see
Been through all the lies and the cries of living in the city
So I follow the lanterns to be a star in the city

Oooh oooh oooh yeaaah

I see the lanterns in the city
I don't need a lover to help me see
Been through all the lies and the cries of living in the city
So I follow the lanterns to be a star in the city

(I’m losing the light, I’m losing the light) Lanterns in the city
(I’m losing the light, I’m losing the light) Lanterns in the city
