Moved to the city to make it
Chasin' the stars in my dreams
It's in the air I can taste it
But it's getting harder to breathe
There ain't no time to be wasted
There's just one high that I need
While everyone's getting faded
Fakin' smiles
They're breaking down underneath
I don't know where our story goes
It's Friday night, the city's bright, it's dripped in gold
The traffic lights in paradise but it feels so cold
The pretty lies and compromise it gets so old
But it's all we know, the highest highs and the lowest lows
It's home sweet home
So many dreamers get jaded
It hits so hard that it bleeds
And day by day I'll take it and take it
Waiting to make history
No one knows
Where their story goes
It's Friday night, the city's bright, it's dripped in gold
The traffic lights in paradise but it feels so cold
The pretty lies and compromise it gets so old
But it's all we know
Like to rock'n'roll, it's in our bones, what we're made for
The velvet ropes, but feeling broke and wanting more
Everyone's blowing smoke and wearing clothes they can't afford
But it's all we know, the highest highs and the lowest lows
It's home sweet home
Oh
Oh
It's Friday night, the city's bright, it's dripped in gold
The traffic lights in paradise but it feels so cold
The pretty lies and compromise it gets so old
But it's all we know
Like to rock'n'roll, it's in our bones, what we're made for
The velvet ropes, but feeling broke and wanting more
Everyone's blowing smoke and wearing clothes they can't afford
But it's all we know, the highest highs and the lowest lows
It's home sweet home
