Woke up in the city twilight Heart heavy feeling so uptight Seeking solace in the shadows Lost soul feeling so hollow Streets buzzing neon glimmer Eyes searching yet growing dimmer Beat drops like a broken echo Finding peace in a smoky tempo Lost soul in a sea of faces Searching love in hidden places 808 is my heartbeat crying Lost but trying I'm still fighting Found a shelter in a rundown bar Stranger's eyes like distant stars His words weave a fragile thread Binding the living to the dead Nights blend into days of sorrow Chasing dawns that never follow Heartbeats like those 9th chords played Darkness wrapped in a soft parade Lost soul in a sea of faces Searching love in hidden places 808 is my heartbeat crying Lost but trying I'm still fighting
