Tonight I need the bright lights
still got her face on my mind.
Heading where the talk is cheap and I'm
dressed to a "t"
so they won't notice me
It's warm for October
and I've got the windows down.
The skyline whispers
her promises, the same lie each night.
But I force myself to believe...
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
The city's a desert
with photographic stars.
Each pretty face is
just a mirage, and my mouth's full of sand again.
But I force myself to believe,
across the river's the cure for what's sick inside of me.
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
I look in the mirror past the buildings,
the sky's getting light.
Another piece of my innocence is the admission
I paid there tonight.
Slow down past her exit though it makes me sick, and I
imagine her saying,
"You're better than this
you're better than this."
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
Whoa-Whoa
And I swore it'd be different

[Cadd9]and I've got the windows down.
[G]The skyline whispers
[Cadd9]her promises, the [Em7]same l[Dsus4]ie each [Cadd9]night.
But I fo[Em7]rce mys[Dsus4]elf to be[Cadd9]lieve...
And I s[G]wore it'd be d[Dsus4]ifferent but h[Cadd9]ow could it be?
What I [G]came to e[Dsus4]scape is right h[Cadd9]ere inside of me.
[G]The city's a desert
[Cadd9]with photographic stars.
[G]Each pretty face is
[Cadd9]just a mirage, and my m[Em7]outh's full of [Dsus4]sand ag[Cadd9]ain.
But I f[Em7]orce mys[Dsus4]elf to be[Cadd9]lieve,
across the r[Em7]iver's the[Dsus4] cure for what[Cadd9]'s sick inside of me.

I loo[Dsus4]k in the m[Cadd9]irror past the bui[Em7]ldings,
the sky's getting l[G]ight.
[Dsus4]Another piece of my in[Cadd9]nocence is the adm[Em7]ission
I paid there ton[G]ight.
S[Em7]low down past her e[Dsus4]xit though it ma[Cadd9]kes me sick, and I
[Em7]imagine her sa[Dsus4]ying,
[Em7]"You're [Dsus4]better than t[Cadd9]his

[Cadd9]Whoa-Whoa
[G]And I swore it'd [Em7]be diff[Dsus4]erent [Cadd9]
