Another night
Spending time in a city that I don't like
Where neon really outshines the moonlight
I call you up at 2:45 your time
Pick up the phone
There's not a soul in the streets and I'm all alone
Need to hear your voice, not the dial tone
Nothing on me but day old cigarette smoke
I feel like I've been gone so long
Don't know where I can call a home
It goes on, it goes on
I wake up, you're not there
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
Can't wake up, it's not fair
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
Half asleep
Proud to see your face pasted on a screen
It's nowhere near you naked and next to me
But it beats just skin on wet concrete
I start to know
There's no hope in making it back home
I can't cope with doing it on my own
If this city don't sleep then it doesn't show
I feel like I've been gone so long
Don't know where I can call a home
It goes on, it goes on
I feel so low so off and on
Losing the only thing I want
Then you're gone, and I'm gone
I wake up, you're not there
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
Can't wake up, it's not fair
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
