This City Songtext
von Dan Parsons

Well, I′m looking for direction
I can't find it anywhere
But I′ll be fine, linger on
Take the time and then you're gone
I'm trapped inside my headspace
This bed feels empty now
The plans were made across the sea
Great for you, fucked for me

But you won′t know me like you could have
If you chose to stay
It can′t always work out my way
We're burning brighter, fading quickly
And now it′s starting to show
'Cause this city′s all that I know


Well, and so you're going somewhere
Would it be stupid if I said
That you could make it right?
My mind′s still on the other night
There's people talking at me
Their words play tricks on me
But I'll be fine, linger on
Take the time and then you′re gone

But you won′t know me like you could have
If you chose to stay
It can't always work out my way
We′re burning brighter, fading quickly
And now it's starting to show
′Cause this city's all that I know

This city′s all that I know
This city's all that I know
This city's all that I know
This city′s all that I know
This city′s all that I know
This city's all that I know
