Polly Chrome: City of Echoes

[Verse 1: Polly] I grew up where the towers rise, Worked my way up from the ground. Took their deals and paid the price, But I lost more than I found. [Verse 2: Andy] I was built to serve and stay in line, Follow orders, play my part. Didn’t know this life was mine, Till I felt a beating heart. [Pre-Chorus: Duet, Polly, Andy] We took two roads, Both full of cracks, But somehow now we’re looking back. [Chorus: Duet, Polly, Andy] City of echoes, city of light, Two lost souls on a neon night. Walking the same streets, chasing the sound, Finding a voice in the underground. [Verse 3: Andy] I watched the world from hollow eyes, Saw their lives but never felt. Didn’t think I’d realize, What it means to be myself. [Verse 4: Polly] They put my name up on the screen, Sold my face, my songs, my past. Told me who I had to be, Till I learned to break the glass. [Pre-Chorus: Duet, Polly, Andy] We’re wired different, built apart, But hear the same beat in our hearts. [Chorus: Duet, Polly, Andy] City of echoes, city of light, Two lost souls on a neon night. Walking the same streets, chasing the sound, Finding a voice in the underground. [Bridge: Duet, Andy, Polly, Alternating)] [Andy] You fought to leave, I fought to stay. [ Polly] But we both ran in different ways. [Andy] Thought I was nothing, just a name. [Polly] But look at us now—we’re not the same. [Bridge: Duet, Polly, Andy, harmonized] We’ve been rewritten, line by line, But no one else can tell us who we are this time. [Chorus: Duet, Polly, Andy] City of echoes, calling us back, Not just shadows, not just tracks. Different pasts, but the same damn fight, We are more than black and white. [Outro: Duet, Polly, Andy, harmonized] We are more than what they say, Walking different roads, but we meet halfway. Wires and steel, flesh and bone, But in this city, we’re not alone.
