City Tonight Songtext
von Dope

It′s getting late but something's waiting in the city of lights
This place is crazy and it makes me wanna fuck up my mind
I like the lights that gently light in all the pornographic stores
I like this thing as they complain about the junkies and the whores

When I was young I dreamed I′d come here and I guess I did
Survive the scum and I'd become someone but never did
These buildings once I let become my life I guess I did
I'm just a bum and care who′s known that′s just the way I live

This is the life
This is the life
You want the life
You want the life


It's getting late and guess who′s playing in the city tonight
This place amazing and it makes me wanna fucking get high
I love the way the buildings sway and all the garbage on the street
The sounds of trains and sirens make lovely music when I sleep

I'm going farther than I ever thought this far could be
By twenty-one I had a gun and ditched authority
I′ve been inside and got by on many felonies
Now twenty-four and going to it's still a part of me

This is the life
This is the life
You want the life
You want the life
This is the life
You want the life
This fucking life
You want my life
