[Verse 1]
The rush of what's new hits
Hardest at midnight
I take a few shots till it
Starts to feel right
But I think of you when I'm
Passing the street light
I think of you when I'm
Passing the street light
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna feel empty anymore
I don't wanna feel lonely anymore
[Chorus]
I love these streets
I love these streets but they
Weren't meant for me to walk
I love these people
I love the people but they
Never seem to wanna talk
And it's been my only home
Ever since I saw
The sky of vermillion
The sky of vermillion
[Verse 2]
The city gets bigger but I
Don't grow with it
I throw on some heels to get
In the spirit
But I think of you, I have to
Admit it
I think of you and I hate to
Admit it
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
The sky of vermillion
The sky of vermillion

We weren’t expecting a big reaction. Honestly, I am surprised. We all had this feeling that the song was really good, but we didn’t get that feedback from radio promoters. They didn’t like the break there in the middle, where it’s only my voice. It was a song where I really wanted to do it that way....
