The city belongs to the young It was mine for years Recall Waltzing away the night Teetering after too many beers The city is my refuge She speaks my language She offered me a hand She provides me a semi soft landing I'm trying to begin to understand life The longer I try to live I belonged to the night I had nothing to give The city was my girlfriend We slept the days away She offered me my freedom And in return I stayed She's ruthless And I'm unruly She's madness I love her truly I'm trying to begin to understand life The longer I try to live I belonged to the night When I had nothing I thought I could give Meaning's hard to come by When all you know are good times Place down roots, I've dug my grave already Love me tender, love me rough Please just tell me I'm enough All my flighted fancies grew wings I'll join them too someday My city's hard to come by A window lit landscape She's wonderful and wise, I See no reason to escape, but now I'm trying hard not to slip I'm trying not to lose grip My body feels numb, and god I feel dumb For letting depression win I'm trying hard not to slip I'm trying not to lose grip With such great ease, she's such tease She'll open my door to more hedonistic tendencies Meaning's hard to come by When all you know are good times Place down roots, I've dug my grave already Love me tender, love me rough Please just tell me I'm enough All my flighted fancies grew wings I'll join them too someday I'm trying to begin to understand life The longer I try to live I belonged to the night When I had nothing I thought I could give My city is my homeland My city is my pride My city leaves me lonely She loves to make me cry My city is my homeland My city is my pride My city leaves me lonely She loves to make me cry She's ruthless And I'm unruly She's madness I love her truly
