lyrics
BEIJING
Standing here
Laying my heart out on the mic
Singing to empty crowds
Don’t wanna be here
Foreign words
No one can understand
Am I just a toy for fate?
The death card chasing me

Pre chorus
I act, try to avoid the wreck
There’s irony in these moments
My luck, it broke me

Chorus
Stone-cold roads
When you got no one to hold
Chasing the dream and the gold
Lost in Beijing
City lights
Beautiful in the night
Without love don’t feel right
Lost in Beijing

Working hard
And they steal bills from my jar
An industry that's so harsh
Through music, I’ll fix things
The future came
Took all my hopes away
Got no song to heal the pain
Ran with the Hierophant

Pre chorus
Chorus

Bridge
The bars, and places I called home
All went away when you said so

Chorus
Leaving Beijing...
