City lights lyrics Blindside

City lights


I took a walk down 4th avenue when i saw it
A red line in the concrete
Leading somewhere out of sight
Something compelled me to stop
So i jumped over the fence
Started following from what appeared to be
The trail of a leaking tin can
Leading into the alley away from the light

Now this is what needs to be done
Blacklight shining in the dark
Brings out brightness more than in the sun
Do i dare to stay
Cause somehow i want to

Trade love for the city lights
You chose me to stay
Trade light for the city love
You chose me to stay

So now what if i continue this walk
The red line is taking me down trashcans lonely street
Yes the streets have neames but the people don't
Or are they forgotten
And i'm starting to smell something beautiful
Though these streets are rotten

Trade love for the city lights
You chose me to stay
Trade light for the city love
You chose me to stay

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics CITY LIGHTS of BLINDSIDE is also present in the album The great depression (2005)

Biografia

Blindside è una band post-hardcore proveniente da Stoccolma, Svezia. Formatasi nel 1994 con il nome Underfree, ha mantenuto tale denominazione per due anni prima di pubblicare il suo primo EP nel 1996. Nel corso degli anni Novanta, la band ha guadagnato popolarità nell'underground musicale svedese, pubblicando diversi album e EP che hanno contribuito a definire il suono post-hardcore europeo. Nel 2000, Blindside ha firmato con l'etichetta discografica Victory Records, aprendo le porte ad una maggiore visibilità internazionale. Il loro album di debutto per la Victory, "The Last Stand", è stato un successo critico e commerciale, consolidando il loro posto tra i gruppi post-hardcore più importanti del panorama mondiale. Tra i brani rappresentativi si ricordano "Lifeline", "The End Is Near" e "I'm Not Afraid". Blindside ha continuato a pubblicare album di successo negli anni successivi, mantenendo un seguito fedele e influenzando generazioni di musicisti post-hardcore.
