The City That Never Sleeps

Flickering lights

and

twinkling stars

Glimmering

nights

and

fancy cars

It's the city

that never

sleeps

Hurrying feet

down

the long,

winding streets

Cold winds

and

empty hearts

It's the city

that never

sleeps

Blazing sun,

Deafening noise

Sunken eyes

And bottled

joys

It's the city

that never sleeps

Cluttered skies

and

crooked smiles

Towering

heights

And walls hiding

deceit

and

lies

It's the city

that never sleeps

Fleeting dreams

and silent screams

It's the city

that never

sleeps
