[Verse 1]
EMississippi swells I know
ever drawing lines to another time
to the sirens of AChicago
or Memphis's Beerie glow
Enot quite cause he chosen so
But if Edreams were drawn to drown in such a small town
so your instincts made youF#m go
you reflect on things Byou now know
[Bridge]
Like how ECindy said it all seems the G#msame
imbedded in Apatterns you don't notice
Bfeatures out of focus its a Eshame
the flashlight just Bfalls in the direction your Aheaded
Eyou just knew there's nothing toG#m gain
no measure of F#mlight among the sightless
Bimmobilized and righteous
it was Epain so you pointed your Bbeam in the direction of Aanywhere
[Chorus 1]
and though Eurbanity is not without its Aflaws
You found the time and Bspace
you need to sharpen your claws
and hone your eyesight on the Askeletons upon
which all your little intEeractions carry on
those that are visible and Anot metaphysical
and not the anatomy of Beverything
[Verse 2]
ESo when I got to your city
it was summer, it was pretty
and we Awalked around because we had the time
And you rBemarked on all the places that you hadn't seen in ages
Adisconnected from the metro city Elines
and on the Aclosed doors of the fire station
Btestament to force displacement
Eshocked me so to see it from the Aground
what seems to Efunctional from great heights looking Adown
[Chorus 2]
but Ecities observed from plAanes
at some point so Bdeceptively all start to look the same
you get distracted by the Alight below the clouds
That seems to shine on through the Enight you know and how
it seems so lit up to some Aline
feel the brightness so confine
only skyscrapers Bshine
the tallest buildings do Adefine E A E
[Verse 3]
And in Eletters now you wonder
in the lights your living under
and the Avantage points you get to even come upon
you Bdream in transportation infrastructures the bus station
and the Eblocks between the shops light's flicker on and off and on
and my Aimagination to travels those Bstreets
thinking of Eplaces and the people that we Ameet
and Econversations of strangers on Abus seats
[Chorus 3]
Elike you and Arthur on the A28
45 Bfading flip side of the day
and saying oh and its Amagical and cool
a place where cities and Estar-scapes collide
I Athink of the people alive and awake on Emagnolia street side
the Aliving room lamps and the headlights of cars are lBike fireflies in the Anight Esky
