Between the Tiles and Stars

[Verse] Lights turned off can't see the flowers Watching from the third-floor ledge Someone there behind the fence Laughing smoking in pretence He smiled for other reasons [Verse 2] Beyond the road over rooftops empty Kids trying to get hit by a car His silence spoke volumes Rain passed by unnoticed Down to bridges steep [Chorus] Streetlights lit like Serengeti Wind chased skirts so petty Life pondered deeply in shadows dense Where to go without defense Lost in thoughts tangled there Stars laughing touched somewhere [Verse 3] Forget the lights forget the signs Rain flows down the winding lines High-rises sang a lonely tune Night turned into a quiet boon [Bridge] Not reading poems not seeing omens Life’s questions deep and endless Tangled in feelings like tangled hair Searching the soul sorting there [Chorus] Streetlights lit like Serengeti Wind chased skirts so petty Life pondered deeply in shadows dense Where to go without defense Lost in thoughts tangled there Stars laughing touched somewhere
