city girl
Growing up in the city of lies
I'm always starved but for food or surprises
I got a lot of friends but in their eyes
I've never found my way on how to make allies
City girl has got to be clever
She always has to aim for the better
Comes with my casual anxiety a
A deeper feeling of being a monster
To own so much and have so little time
Fallen dreams and angels lie on the tar
This place is full of junkies in disguise
Everybody gets high in bullshit paradise
And I'm so very free
And I'm so very dumb
Can't I see the difference between wise and numb
Am I so very free
Am I so very dumb
I can't even spend a night alone
Hustling in the city
I read the signs saying
How old I am
Gambling in the city
I'll trade my pride for any
Kind of award
I'm a zombie girl living in a dead town
I'm a blood sucker for your admiration
Searching for a pulse that's already gone
In the sexy glare of shopping malls
City girl has got to be clever
She always has to aim for the better
Comes with my appetite for destruction
A deeper feeling of being a monster
And I'm so very free
And I'm so very dumb
Can't I see the difference between wise and numb
Am I so very free
Am I so very dumb
I can't even spend a night alone
Hustling in the city
I read the signs saying
How old I am
Gambling in the city
I'll trade my pride for any
Kind of award
Leaving the city
She's all I have and
I am the only one
I'm always starved but for food or surprises
I got a lot of friends but in their eyes
I've never found my way on how to make allies
City girl has got to be clever
She always has to aim for the better
Comes with my casual anxiety a
A deeper feeling of being a monster
To own so much and have so little time
Fallen dreams and angels lie on the tar
This place is full of junkies in disguise
Everybody gets high in bullshit paradise
And I'm so very free
And I'm so very dumb
Can't I see the difference between wise and numb
Am I so very free
Am I so very dumb
I can't even spend a night alone
Hustling in the city
I read the signs saying
How old I am
Gambling in the city
I'll trade my pride for any
Kind of award
I'm a zombie girl living in a dead town
I'm a blood sucker for your admiration
Searching for a pulse that's already gone
In the sexy glare of shopping malls
City girl has got to be clever
She always has to aim for the better
Comes with my appetite for destruction
A deeper feeling of being a monster
And I'm so very free
And I'm so very dumb
Can't I see the difference between wise and numb
Am I so very free
Am I so very dumb
I can't even spend a night alone
Hustling in the city
I read the signs saying
How old I am
Gambling in the city
I'll trade my pride for any
Kind of award
Leaving the city
She's all I have and
I am the only one
