The City Sleeps Alone
Many thoughts were left behind
Most of them I'll never find
Got no time left to wait around
And I know that all your words are worthless
Despite the many things I'd like to see
I know your ghost still follows me
So I'll take my bows, and call for the last rounds
'Cause the lights are simply blinding me
The city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on my mind
Losing sleep, cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better you than it is me
And I don't know what's wrong with me
I try to swim when I can't breathe
These days we lend, they never seem to end
But I won't be free till the pain's relieved
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on our minds
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better than the life we lead
Lead
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
Just a blink and we're left behind
But we'll be freed, the Sargents they will lead
And we'll march straight into the sea
Sea
The city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on my mind
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better you than it is me
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh our minds
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better than the life we lead
Lead
Most of them I'll never find
Got no time left to wait around
And I know that all your words are worthless
Despite the many things I'd like to see
I know your ghost still follows me
So I'll take my bows, and call for the last rounds
'Cause the lights are simply blinding me
The city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on my mind
Losing sleep, cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better you than it is me
And I don't know what's wrong with me
I try to swim when I can't breathe
These days we lend, they never seem to end
But I won't be free till the pain's relieved
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on our minds
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better than the life we lead
Lead
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
Just a blink and we're left behind
But we'll be freed, the Sargents they will lead
And we'll march straight into the sea
Sea
The city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh on my mind
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better you than it is me
'Cause the city it sleeps alone tonight
And a lot of thoughts weigh our minds
Losing sleep, been cast out to the sea
(And I've been thinking that)
It's better than the life we lead
Lead
