Silent Streetlights

歌詞

Streetlights hum but make no sound, Frozen city, no one around. Traffic sleeps beneath the snow, Every signal says “don’t go.” Windows glow like distant eyes, Watching lives they won’t reply. Footsteps fade before they land, I walk this night unplanned. Silent streetlights overhead, Lighting words I never said. No applause, no echo back, Just my shadow on the black. Silent streetlights, cold and kind, Only witnesses I find. If the night won’t speak to me, I’ll talk to what I see. Crosswalk counts but no one moves, Time repeats the same excuse. Billboards smile with borrowed cheer, Selling dreams that aren’t from here. Snow collects on empty signs, Directions lost between the lines. Every thought slows down its pace, Caught inside this quiet place. I used to chase the city sound, Now I breathe where none is found. In the glow that doesn’t judge, I stand still, I don’t budge. Silent streetlights overhead, Lighting words I never said. No applause, no echo back, Just my shadow on the black. Silent streetlights, cold and kind, Only witnesses I find. If the night won’t speak to me, I’ll talk to what I see. When the morning breaks this spell, Streetlights fade, I can’t tell If they saw me as I was, Or just another one who does.
