While The City Sleeps

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 
Livin' well is the best revenge, so give 'em hell 

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 

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 

While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps 
While the city sleeps - while the city sleeps 
While the city sleeps - yeah, there's no relief 
While the city sleeps
