City lights
Stars in the sky
Get me a blessing get me drunk or get me high
It's the last day of August and my stomach kinda hurts
Talking with some and she told me
I can't figure out what that means but she said that I'll be fine
It's economics man you wanna know what really hides behind
City lights surround me
City lights surround me
I got Marx inside a soup can I got Warhol in the backseat
There's a Jester looking good in ears on wild sides in taxis
With a pen between lips asked "what do I represent"
I just stood there pretentiously trying to get it through my head
City lights surround me
City lights surround me
City lights
Be my escape
Take me some place I know I'll never be the same
City lights
Take my soul
Feeling so good don't wanna do what I've been told
I'm just a European monkey with a haircut and a shave
A chain brand coffee in my left hand and in my brain
With your degenerate aesthetics man your stomach is a mess
What do you mean I can't control it I stood naked in front of death and asked him
City lights surround me (Please not yet man)
City lights surround me (I have some songs to finish)
It's the last day of August and we're never gonna die
With all the hurricanes and girls and the suburbs in my mind
There's marijuana in a bedroom there's a record on the floor
About being stuck inside of Memphis while you're walking to the door
City lights surround me
City lights surround me
Take me away
Take me away
Because all our time is stolen every death is premature
Our decisions are just politics so why can't we do it girl
I don't wanna bug you but we really don't have time
So if you want to get away then I still think I'm safe to drive
City lights
I never had
It's so romantic so fantastic I'm invincible a-ha
City lights surround me
City lights surround me
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Stars in the sky
Get me a blessing get me drunk or get me high
It's the last day of August and my stomach kinda hurts

Take me away
Take me away
