While The City Sleeps

[Verse 1] What goes on behind closed doors Private wounds, open sores You're your own worst enemy And cheap thrills bring you to your knees It's thumbs down for someone you know And it's easy come and easy go [Chorus] Burn your bridges, take what you can get Go for the throat cause you paid your debt Living well is the best revenge, so give them hell [Verse 2] While the city sleeps It's all there in black and white While the city sleeps Through the eye of the needle, gotta thread your life While the city sleeps While the city sleeps It's a hit or miss, an eye for an eye Live for today, and don't ask why For better or worse, you bought and sold They love you while you're hot And leave you when you're cold [Chorus] [Verse 3] While the city sleeps Yeah, better run for your life Take your troubles to the night While the city sleeps Yeah, beggars, thieves and losers, there's no relief While the city sleeps There's no relief, while the city sleeps While the city sleeps - yeah [Chorus] [Outro] While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps Yeah, there's no relief
