"Dark In The City" lyrics

I live in a city people wanna move into
I do all the things that people say they wanna do
But when the songs that we write don't shake the college student loans
Everybody in town wants to move back home

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside

All the shops on my street only sell expensive things
We have everything that nobody really needs
But if you go a little further, a little further down the road
The families live on food stamps, and the kids wear worn out clothes

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside

Everybody knows her from the corner down the street
Cause she asks for money from everybody that she meets
But no one knows the demons putting words inside her mouth
She used to be a streetlamp, now her light has gone out

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside

Dark in the city
Dark, dark in the city
Yeah but there's a light on the inside
Light on the inside
