Cars speed through my city, no sunlight
Humid drops of rain
Conversation takes place on phones
Who needs eye contact?

Me and my friends are pretending
To be anything but lost
If we're in love then it's end-game
If we're hard-up then we're not
And the projects that we're making
Are all starting to take off
Every now and then we try to face reality, but it's forgotten

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

Strangers shouting while a busker tries to sing
Stand by me again
Birds above fly through the concrete sky
Looking for a home

Me and my friends are pretending
To be anything but lost
If we're in love then it's end-game
If we're hard up then we're not
And the projects that we're making
Are all starting to take off
Every now and then we try to face reality, but it's forgotten

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

As this day fades to another
We're all competing undercover
And for what?
I don't know why
Energy in low supply

I can feel it pushing at me till I can't breathe
Aware of what I want but not sure what I need
I can feel it pushing at my till I can't breathe
Aware of what I want but not sure what I, what I, what I, what I, what I need
