Plain British hard rock music by a band that never made it popular. City of Lights is the hit song of State of Mind album with a fantastic bridge and refrain, great composing by the mastermind called Adrian Smith and wonderful singing by (Hans Olav) Solli. A sing-along song, by a great band.
Lyrics:
Not word, can't hear a sound
Nobody seen, no one around
I'm in a sweat, can't stand the heat
I feel, risin' from the city street
I'm in a rage, I can't contain
Someone free from the endless pain
I tried so hard, it can't be fair
I'm circled by the vultures of despair
Somebody try to help me
Guess what's going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
Been pushed too far, you had enough
Just a boy but you act so tough
The fruits of evil, they taste so sweet
Nobody told you 'bout the poison meat
He's in a rage, he can't contain
Like a drug that's shooting through his veins
You try to scream but there's no sound
You're movin' closer to the hallowed ground
Somebody try to help me
Guess what's going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
Somebody try to help me
Guess what's going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
