Из альбома: Give Up
Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty,
I'm barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering--
What's buried under me?
(There I am) (2x)
I wear my badge--
a vinyl sticker with big block letters
adhering to my chest
Tells your new friends:
"I am a vistor here,
I am not permanent"
The only thing, keeping me dry is--
It seems so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with no door key,
explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing
That I was the one worth leaving (2x)
DC sleeps alone tonight
It seems so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with no door key,
explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing
That I was the one worth leaving (2x)
The District Sleeps Alone Tonight
After the bars turn out their lights
Send the autumn swerving
Into the loneliest evening
I am finally seeing
That i was the one worth leaving (4x)
