While The City Sleeps Lyrics

 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
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
