Cityboy Lyrics (English Translation) – THAMA & SHINDRUM

(Verse 1)
Dreams feel far away,
But the heavy hours are close.
Let’s end the day here,
Before my feet grow too weary.
We’ve run so far tonight,
I think it’s time to go home.
(Chorus)
We came too deep inside the city,
Past someone’s 70-story tower.
Blocks of copied buildings, pasted all around,
Cruising, cruising through the spaces in between.
(Verse 2)
We came too deep inside the city,
Dressed in black and white each season.
Rows of mirrored buildings, stamped into the ground,
Cruising, cruising through the spaces in between.
(Bridge)
Call the cab, take the shortest way,
Breathe the night air through the window pane.
Stories in the cars we pass and leave behind,
Underneath the city’s golden, fading light.
I’m coming home.
(Chorus)
We came too deep inside the city,
Past someone’s 70-story tower.
Blocks of copied buildings, pasted all around,
Cruising, cruising through the spaces in between.
We came too deep inside the city,
Dressed in black and white each season.
Rows of mirrored buildings, stamped into the ground,
Cruising, cruising through the spaces in between.
(Reflection)
I know it stopped shining,
I know it’s not fine.
Where did it all go wrong?
We’ll never know more, know more,
But we can’t stop asking why.
(Outro)
We came too deep inside the city,
Past someone’s 70-story tower.
Blocks of copied buildings, pasted all around,
Cruising, cruising through the spaces in between…
We came too deep inside the city,
Dressed in black and white each season.
Rows of mirrored buildings, stamped into the ground…
It’s hard to know anymore.
