City Lights

A edgy post-punk song by Best Bets, illuminating urban New Zealand nights.

City lights flicker in the haze
Neon signs in a daze

Streets alive with the hum of the crowd
Lost in the sound, saying it loud

Chorus

City lights, burn so bright
In the dark, own the night

Shadows play, secrets hide
City lights, my guide

Alleys twist, stories untold
In the cold, turning gold

Faces pass in the glow so stark
Leaving their mark

Chorus

City lights, burn so bright
In the dark, own the night

Shadows play, secrets hide
City lights, my guide

Bridge

When the dawn creeps in slow
Lights fade, but the thrill grows

City pulse, beats in my veins
Breaking chains

Outro

City lights, forever gleam
In the dream, supreme
