The city falls below freezing at night
The neon hums and the clubs and the catfights
You bundle up but your ears still burn
With the lessons you will never learn
Then through the door as you shake the cold off
Back of your mind, hope the world gets told off
But then your eyes settle on the view
Of your family waiting there for you
So understated, all this hatred
When you turn to the one in your time
Who feeds you out all the chorus lines
You can masquerade that you’re feeling untied, oh
And if you burn for the love of your life
Your dopamine floods you by design
So don’t you spend your days
Searching for the downside, oh
Amidst the chaos of floating headlines
And every moment stability unwinds
It’s like a mantra that fills your head
With a yearning to be left for dead
Malevolence, easier to take on
When all your allies endorse you, stay strong
You might not tear through the discontent
At the very least you’ll make a dent
