The City

Crashing into a broken piece of glass-shattered.

Forever lights bright seen in every inch of sight-vision.

What do you want from me? Tell me.

Don't say you can help me when you give me empty promises.

I have to let you go. Run away. There you are.

Twisting past your lies, I am still trying to get away.

I promise I will be good. 

You can give, but you can also take away.

Who am I working for? Tell me.

Im trying so hard, and I never get nothing in return-expectations.

Thank you for everything you've shown me.

Although you may be full of pity, you still remain MY city.
