about

City Life is from Seth Paul Macchi's debut release, The Valley EP

lyrics

V1
you break it down for me again
so simple that I can’t defend
the meaning of the wise
who rarely step outside
the noise of city life

V2
it’s opened up for me today
I’m circling the words you say
still it’s hard to get back in
like talking to a friend
over noise of city life

V3
I’m pulled back to the battle ground
we’re all looking but it can’t be found
there’s a riot in the streets
they’re all screaming for relief
the noise of city life

V4
who’s around to hear the little prayers?
is there anyone that even cares?
‘cause no matter what I read
I see no space to breathe
in the noise of city life

V5
this place it speaks of empathy
it’s stories promise sympathy
but it’s nothing more than lies
white noise and neon signs
just the noise of city life


Chorus
take me past the logic of this place
the beauty of it all is in your face
sing to me again about your plans
in your eyes I start to understand
