City Lights
PITT William Lyrics

Secret light, no reveries
There is a hidden source of light that isn't associated with dreaming or wandering thoughts.

Got no time for memories
There is no time to think about past events.

Follow me, don't be afraid
The singer is leading someone to a different place and wants them to trust him/her.

Don't hide away
The artist wants this person to be brave and face whatever is in front of them.

Window closed, the light is on
There is light coming from somewhere, but the windows are closed.

Is it dusk or is it dawn
The time of day is unclear because of the closed windows.

Telephone off the line
The phone is not in use and there is no communication from outside.

What's on T.V.
Nothing is on the television, which could mean that the person is avoiding watching TV and instead taking part in something else.

You gotta try
The artist is encouraging this person to make an effort to change their situation.

To get away from this endless night
The artist wants the person to break free from a difficult and seemingly endless situation.

I'm gonna help you to see the light
The singer wants to assist this person in finding a solution to their problems.

To get out and see some city lights
The artist thinks that this person needs to change their surroundings and go out into the city to experience something different.

Need some shelter for awhile
This person needs a safe place to stay for a short period of time.

From the pain and the phony smiles
This person is trying to escape from a situation where people are hiding their feelings and pretending to be happy.

Are you ready
The singer is asking if the person is mentally prepared to make a change.

Is it time to trust someone
The artist is wondering if this person is ready to confide in someone and trust them with their problems.
