Up On Mulholland

[Intro] [Verse] Your name keeps shinning in my head Like headlights through the rain I take the long way through the hills Just to feel the pain again I wonder who you're lying next to When the city fades to black And whether he can see the truth Or if you're still hiding that I know the sound of your silence I know the secrets in your eyes And every mile between us creates another alibi [Pre-Chorus] The road keeps twisting The night keeps moving But I can't leave this thought behind The further I drive The closer I get To everything I'm trying to hide [Chorus] Up on Mulholland, the city falls away A million lights below me, but I can't see straight The ocean keeps its secrets, the mountains hold their breath, And every road I take tonight Leads me deeper in your darkness Up on Mulholland...Am I chasing a dream of you—Or running from myself? [Verse] The city looks like scattered stars Caught beneath a sheet of glass Every street becomes a memory Every turn becomes the past Our love was never straight or simple It was neon, smoke, and rain Two hearts moving through the same town On two different lanes You were the light beyond the canyon I was the shadow on the road And somewhere between desire And duty, something in me broke [Pre-Chorus] The road keeps twisting The night keeps moving But I can't leave this thought behind The further I drive The closer I get To everything I'm trying to hide [Chorus] Up on Mulholland, the city falls away A million lights below me, but I can't see straight The ocean keeps its secrets, the mountains hold their breath And every road I take tonight leads me deeper in your darkness Up on Mulholland...Am I chasing a dream of you—Or running from myself? [Guitar Solo] [Verse] If I follow you beyond the city If I cross that final line Would you leave the truth behind you, Could I ever make you mine? I could take you from the danger I could turn and walk away But the man inside that house tonight Is someone I must face So I keep driving through the darkness With the answer in my hand Wondering if love can save us Or just make me who I am [Bridge / Breakdown] The badge is in the glove box... The truth is on the seat... Your shadow's in the rearview... But you're heart's still next to me. [Guitar rises] Tell me which road takes me home... Tell me which road sets you free... [Final Chorus] Up on Mulholland, the city falls away A million lights below me, but I can't see straight The ocean keeps its secrets, the mountains hold their breath And every road I take tonight leads me deeper in your darkness Up on Mulholland...Am I chasing a dream of you—Or running from myself? [Outro]
