Lost In City Lights

The New Cities Lost In City Lights Lyrics
1.Hypertronic Superstar

Lyricist:Chris Bergeron, David Brown, Nick Denis, Francis Fugere, Phil
Lachance, Julien Martre

Your face on the cover of a magazine
Cranked up rolling out of the limousine
Craving looks, throwing hooks, trying to fish 'em out
You want it now, you need it all right now

Show up late for your late show interview
Wake up, make up, buddy look at you
Gotta confess, it's a mess, watcha trying to prove?
Should have thought it through, now watcha gonna do?

That's what you hurt for, another encore
Gotta get 'em moving, right here on the dance floor
That's what you hurt for, another encore
Ego driven, life scarred, hypertronic superstar
This is just the way your are

Snap shot, getting caught, million copies sold
Faking hits, talking shit on your cell phone
L O V E, you see, has yet to come round
The word is out, you're on your way, you're going down

That's what you hurt for, another encore
Gotta get 'em moving, right here on the dance floor
That's what you hurt for, another encore
Ego driven, life scarred, hypertronic superstar
This is just the way your are

Hypertronic superstar, this is just the way you are
You're standing for nothing
Half a million souls alike, wide asleep in city lights
You're failing and you're falling

Down down, you're on your way
You're going down, down

That's what you hurt for, another encore
Gotta get 'em moving, right here on the dance floor
That's what you hurt for, another encore
Ego driven, life scarred, hypertronic superstar
This is just the way your are


2.Dead End Countdown

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Nicolas
Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre,
Greig Andrew Nori

Exiled and pushed away, lost in time, always I'll be
This bitter person who's stuck right here disillusioned
Don't stand by if you don't like what you see
So unsatisfied, no, I won't take what you say to me

Give me some time, give me some reason
Make up your mind, cool down the fever
Drama must die, so give me some way
To salvage this life, finally it's over

You oughta stay away, till you see what runs through me
Unless you get this game, the only one I wanna play
My promise is cold, you've never been told
There's nothing to hide, I never did lie
There's no way to win when love is in vain
I won't take what you said to me

Give me some time, give me some reason
Make up your mind, cool down the fever
Drama must die, so give me some way
To salvage this life, finally it's over

Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown

I know we're stuck inside a dead end countdown
With no communication straight down
We're drowning in our desperation
We're lost beneath the surface

Give me some time, give me some reason
Make up your mind, cool down the fever
Drama must die, so give me some way
To salvage this life, finally it's over

Give me some time, give me some reason
I know we're stuck inside
Give me some time, give me some reason
Now we're stuck inside

Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown
Dead end countdown


3.Take It Back/Cheat Again

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, David Brown, Nicolas Denis, Francis
Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre, Greig Andrew
Nori

Time, time is what we need?
Well, there's no way this is true
From what we can't keep hiding
I see it, feel it too

Nothing seems to make us shake
But we can spend a lifetime
And make the same mistakes so

Get it back, get it back, get it back now
Right now and leave it all far behind
Get it back, get it back, losing track now

Lights out, it's the only way we're gonna survive
The thrill is gone, we need a change
Don't hide, don't sugarcoat the pain

Our words are not quite the same
And you don't whisper anymore
The normal days, no longer
No longer feed our souls

If while I change, you stayed the same
Well, babe we had it coming but
We keep fighting through

Get it back, get it back, get it back now
Right now and leave it all far behind
Get it back, get it back, losing track now

Lights out, it's the only way we're gonna survive
The thrill is gone we need a change
Don't hide, don't sugarcoat the pain

Hop on a train while no one looks
Let's let it take us far into
The only one way to reveal

The only place that seems to keep your heart pumpin'
And it's running overflowed
If this whole thing wasn't real, you'd never know

Get it back, get it back, get it back now
Right now and leave it all far behind
Get it back, get it back, losing track now

Lights out, it's the only way we're gonna survive
The thrill is gone we need a change
We've come so far, it's such a shame
Let's take it back and cheat again
Don't hide, don't sugarcoat the pain


4.Looks Minus Substance

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Nicolas
Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre,
Greig Andrew Nori

I believe when the time comes
I'll get my way
I can say that I'll make sure
They're all blown away, artificial all the way
A shallow sexy type
They'll say looks minus substance

I believe as adrenaline kicks in
I'll be getting ready, drunk with anxiety
I'll be charming to the masses
Looks minus substance

But everytime I watch you
My mind is racing and my breath I loose
And everytime I get to touch you, touch you
Yeah, every single time you get me
Hooked, get me hooked

They believe after all this act
I'm displayed a good look in the eye
Still sells the same
But then if our passion's steel
And no fantasy is real
(They're)
All of no substance

But everytime I watch you
My mind is racing
And my breath I loose
And everytime I get to touch you, touch you
Yeah, every single time you get me
Hooked, you get me hooked


5.Leaders Of The Misled

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, David Brown, Ben Cook, Nicolas Denis,
Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre, Greig
Andrew Nori

I cannot forget those days
Heavy like my feet were stuck in concrete
Locked into a life-delay
Where everything I'd see was blind ambition

Just when this story seems to end
Our world expands and then extends
Even if my words are faint
You will always hear me say

Tell me more, tell me more
Why keep moving ahead?
When we both know it's no way to go
Tell me, have we become
The leaders of the misled in the end?

Let's hold on and take a breath
Take a step away and break transmission
We've walked into another mess
'Cause I can never turn down propositions

Just when our story seems to end
You've gone and done it all again
And even if my words are faint
You will always hear me say
Is this a chain reaction? Let's not fight it

Tell me more, tell me more
Why keep moving ahead
When we both know, it's no way to go
Tell me, have we become
The leaders of the misled in the end?

Is this a chain reaction? Let's not fight it
This game is taking over, can't control it
Let it go, we both know
Intentions are never quite what they seem
What can we lose? What can we gain?

Lying to ourselves makes it easy to explain
What's there to prove? It's all the same
Living in a past that you know will never last
You will always hear me say

Tell me more, tell me more
Why keep moving ahead?
When we both know, it's no way to go
Tell me, have we become
The leaders of the misled in the end?


6.Lost In City Lights

Lyricist:Chris Bergeron, David Brown, Nick Denis, Francis Fugere, Phil
Lachance, Julien Martre, Greg Nori

I met you on a stormy weekend
You never meant to draw the line
I saw you once, you didn't smile
Thought you needed my advice
But didn't know it at the time

I called you in the dead of winter
You didn't even hold the line
I've seen it all, the great decline
One more troubled state of mine
What's so wrong? Why can't you even try?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles 'round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It's the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line
Lost in city lights

I know all about your little secrets
I've felt the chills and your regrets
I heard 'em all, yeah through the wall
While you never had a clue
And if you knew, what would you do?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles 'round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It's the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, we're dreaming

Falling back in the days you were doing all right
If you're set in your ways then you fade out of sight
When at first it felt wrong it soon became right

Now the cracks on the wall were a map of your life
The addiction is back and it's heavy this time
Now you're talking to the voices through the wall
Will you make it this time?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles 'round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It's the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line

Cause I don't wanna know
That's the sound of strangers breaking new ground
Lost in city lights
Here we go now falling of the straight line


7.Far Beyond

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Nicolas
Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre,
Greig Andrew Nori

Black clouds over me, I'm paranoid
I can't shake the ground beneath my feet
Stuck in between, the right and wrong
Way of admitting my defeat

So much confusion
Disillusion of what we're supposed to be
There's no solution
It's the point of view we're all too blind to see

All by myself, I'm on my way
I'll never surrender
Far beyond where
All ambition's locked away

Corruption in the streets, I'm terrified
The cracks in the windows are losing head
So much I've seen, the more I try
It keeps getting harder to believe

So much confusion
Disillusion of what we're supposed to be
We can't stop the motion
With this notion we're so used to living with

All by myself, I'm on my way
I'll never surrender
Far beyond where
All ambition's locked away

All by myself I'm on my way
I'll never surrender
Far beyond is where
My passion hides away

When did we become
Ashamed of what we've done
Just like a loaded gun
We've got the power

We'll fight back in anger
We're falling in deeper
Deeper and deeper
We'll fight back in anger

All by myself, I'm on my way
I'll never surrender
Far beyond where
All ambition's locked away

All by myself I'm on my way
I'll never surrender
Far beyond is where
My passion hides away


8.X-Revolution (Settling For Second Best)

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, David Brown, Nicolas Denis, Francis
Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre

It's all overrated
We're all dazed and jaded

We never give a damn if you're on our side
It doesn't make it better but it sure feels right
Do you believe, do you believe me?
We never pay the price but commit the crime
You wanna get it fast but you got no time
Do you believe, do you believe me?

Now can you blame the kids for trying to aim
For fated future to change whatever your reaction
Look out for clues, this is the path that we choose
This is our moment of true, alive and in full action

It's all overrated
We're all dazed and jaded
It's an illusion, x-revolution
Not what we awaited
We all feel sedated
Sick evolution, it's an intrusion

We can see clearly but we don't look twice
Your arms get stronger but your bravery's gone
Do you believe, do you believe me?
Sick of being stuck in the twilight zone
Who you gonna trust when your faith is gone?
Will you believe, will you believe me?

Now can you blame the kids for trying to aim
For fated future to change whatever your reaction
Look out for clues, this is the path that we choose
This is our moment of true, alive and in full action

It's all overrated
We're all dazed and jaded
It's an illusion, x-revolution
Not what we awaited
We all feel sedated
Sick evolution, it's an intrusion

Is it that we're supposed to be?
A simple minded tragedy
Taking more and giving less
Settling for second best

Remember when you once believe
In endless possibilities
Those days when you could do no wrong
I wonder if those days are gone

It's all overrated
We're all dazed and jaded
It's an illusion, x-revolution
Not what we awaited
We all feel sedated
Sick evolution, it's an intrusion

It's all overrated
Is it that we're supposed to be?
We're all dazed and jaded
A simple minded tragedy

Not what we awaited
Taking more and giving less
We all feel sedated
Settling for second best


9.Low Radiation

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Nicolas
Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre,
Greig Andrew Nori

I curse this day while you take over my time
Not led astray, I hope you'll change your mind
To realize we're blinded by something you said
Are you tricked by your own lies?

Let's forget the mistakes we've made 'cause time is passing by
Enjoy the rest of your time with me, it's free but worth the
price
We know we can hold on to all these things we had
Don't think, don't doubt, it's early, let's just give it a try

Don't follow me in this vacant mystery
Now can't you see there's no point in feeling down
So realize you shouldn't hide
Resist your mind and leave the rest behind

Let's forget the mistakes we've made 'cause time is passing by
Enjoy the rest of your time with me, it's free but worth the
price
We know we can hold on to all these things we had
Don't think, don't doubt, it's early, let's just give it a try

Now you care 'cause now you see
(Hold on)
And now you can if you really wanna make it

Now you care 'cause now you see
(Hold on)
And now you can if you really wanna make it

Let's forget the mistakes we've made 'cause time is passing by
Enjoy the rest of your time with me, it's free but worth the
price
We know we can hold on to all these things we had
Don't think, don't doubt, it's early, let's just give it a try
'Cause time's still passing by


10.Modern Ghosts

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Ben Cook,
Darryl Michael Costello, Nicolas Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe
Richar Lachance, Julien Martre, Greig Andrew Nori

Once it starts It's coming down
But I don't want to be around
Won't you come and go away with me?

Once you start to realize
No one's waiting by your side
I'll watch you slowly fall apart

Nobody knows just what to call me
I'm at a low, I'm living in a dream
Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay right here with my fears
And I know you won't be leaving
But all my thoughts are half the world away

Flash a smile when you say
That there will be a better day
Won't you come and go away with me?

Broken mirror in front of me
Distorted views are all I see
Watch me as I fall apart

Nobody knows just what to call me
I'm at a low, I'm living in a dream
Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay right here with my fears
And I know you won't be leaving
But all my thoughts are half the world
All my thoughts are half the world away

I know you like the way you look tonight
You said I've read you like a book, you're right
I know you like the way you look tonight
You said I've read you like a book, you're right

Nobody knows just what to call me
I'm at a low, I'm living in a dream
Nobody knows if angels are calling

As you try to stay right here with my fears
And I know you won't be leaving
But all my thoughts are half the world
All my thoughts are half the world away


11.Sinking Has Never Been So Easy

Lyricist:Christian Bergeron, Matthew Brann, David Brown, Nicolas
Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Richar Lachance, Julien Martre,
Greig Andrew Nori

Let's see how it feels
(Let's see how it feels)
So thought to stick to what you've earned
What do you believe in?
(What do you believe in?)

No matter what they say
You better board the right ship
'Cause sinking has never been so easy
Like a stone in this sea of strangers

This time you better watch out
Out of the line, I won't be pushed around
'Cause there is one too many lessons
Far too many ways to learn
We'll make it, make sense

Let's see how it feels
(Let's see how it feels)
Doing the dance to prove them wrong
Is this even real? No doubt
It's bound to hit the ground

You better board the right ship
'Cause sinking has never been so easy
Like a stone in this sea of strangers

This time you better watch out
Out of the line, I won't be pushed around
'Cause there is one too many lessons
Far too many ways to learn
We'll make it, make sense

Can't you see that everything's wrong
Time had come for us to move on
Here's our chance to take it back
Spread attack and make this world our own

I'll stick around and solve the problem
Only now the clock is ticking
Out of time and out of breath
I'm out of breath but drowning won't take me away

Let's see how it feels

This time you better watch out
Out of the line, I won't be pushed around
'Cause there is one too many lessons
Far too many ways to learn
