In a high rise with the lights out
In a suit and tie where we hide out
I don’t know you, but I want to
You’ve got a beautiful face I can lie to
Cut the lights out
Now we roll uptown with the top down
Everything looks better in the night with the lights out
Too bold catch a cold from the new crowd
Move in vain when they’re chained to a brute sound
Get weightless
Double knot laces
Silhouette seen but oblivious to faces
Won’t change for the sake of the phase
That they pulled from the grave
So we push to embrace this
Gotta mimic every move
Every step of this shape shift test
We exhale then compress
Facade is the vogue and we dress to impress
Never give a little more
Always give a little less
I caught this mood in a third eye view
I pick you out in a packed out room
Too forward to say but it’s safe to assume
That we felt this heat with the sparks in bloom
Soak in the glow
Move slow
Navigate through the maze in the haze of the smoke
This toxin is making me float
And I love how it burns at the back of my throat
Stand by
It’s about that time
Where we lose our wits
When we take that dive
It’s a full proof sign when I loosen my tie
A brand new state when this place unwinds
No need for this bar room brawl
With the pool cues swinging up and down the hall
The cool kids post up against the wall
They want to find true love in a bathroom stall
No reason to bum about
I see the mayhem’s over, I’m sober now
So we go back home with the top down
Everything looks better in the night with the lights out
