TheCity That I Know
The city that I know is boring out a hole
To suck itself out of before it gets too cold
The city that I loved is scared to get old
And buys itself a badge to show that we are here
And hey, oh my
I try and say, it's okay
To be around
Come down
Come down
The city that I know is turning down the sound
And places that I go they're razing to the ground
The people are all gone, the candle has burnt out
And now I'm still here wondering if I can get out
And hey, oh my
I try and say, it's okay
To be around
Come down
Come down
I had a dream last night of neon mirrorballs
Glistening outside the mini music halls
Down little cobbled streets, crowded atmospheres
And people that you meet are as glad as me to be here
But I'm
Just a guy
With pleasant dreams
So it seems
Because what goes up
Comes down
Comes down
To suck itself out of before it gets too cold
The city that I loved is scared to get old
And buys itself a badge to show that we are here
And hey, oh my
I try and say, it's okay
To be around
Come down
Come down
The city that I know is turning down the sound
And places that I go they're razing to the ground
The people are all gone, the candle has burnt out
And now I'm still here wondering if I can get out
And hey, oh my
I try and say, it's okay
To be around
Come down
Come down
I had a dream last night of neon mirrorballs
Glistening outside the mini music halls
Down little cobbled streets, crowded atmospheres
And people that you meet are as glad as me to be here
But I'm
Just a guy
With pleasant dreams
So it seems
Because what goes up
Comes down
Comes down
