City (Demo Version)歌词完整版
I love you my city, with the sharpest of teeth
That chokes me with smog, then allows me to breathe
I need you my city, with your towers and trains
Beat me down with sun rays, let me dance in the rain
My feet were designed for you roads
Designed to run
From the lonesome and quiet
Straight into a riot
To stare face to face with a gun
And the strings of alarm clocks that beat in your heart like a drum
Form the shape of two wings
Such curious things
That carry the sleepy and numb
I hate you my city, leave me cold as a ghost
Strip away all the things that I hold onto most
As the wheels of a bus leave them flat on your roads
Leave me trudging along as I carry their load
But your alleyways greet me as comforting as an old friend
This is where I belong, in the tune of your song
In your graveyards my footsteps will end
Taking every blister that weeps like I child in my shoes
I could die on the hill that I crave to be still
But there's nothing I fear more to do
I fear you my city, for I'm worried I'm yours
I'm resigned to a life full of revolving doors
I fear you, I fear you, for I can't close my eyes
As you feed your transmissions, your gospels and lies
But your alleyways greet me as comforting as an old friend
This is where I belong, in the tune of your song
In your graveyards my footsteps will end
Taking every blister that weeps like I child in my shoes
I could die on the hill that I crave to be still
But there's nothing I fear more to do
I love you my city, with the sharpest of teeth
That chokes me with smog, then allows me to breathe
I need you my city, with your towers and trains
Beat me down with sun rays, let me dance in the rain
