50,000 ('17)

Hey you you out there
How did you see me when you stare
How did I get here
Where does it all fall
I swear to god that I just don't know
Sunlight sinking
Slowly into night
Cardboard cities
Don't know where I sleep tonight
Broken sidewalks
Street lights in disrepair
It didn't have to be like this
Another life was lost somewhere
50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing
And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him
Still believing that old lie the one that your own face betrays
Rock stars don't ever die they only fade away
Searchlights sweeping
50,000 souls we face
Never ever sleeping
A serious drug you can't replace
Falling angels
Spiralling the sky at night
A star falls in the darkness
But our eyes are blinded in the light
50,000 hands are raised to a man that's just like you and me
We create the gods we can and gift them immortality
Still believing that old lie the one that your own face betrays
Rock stars don't ever die they only fade away
Hey you you out there
How did you see me when you stare
How did I get here
Where does it all fall
I swear to god that I just don't know
50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing
And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him
