the city
The city never sleeps I hear the people walk by when it's late Sirens beat through my window cill I can't close my eyes Don't control what I'm into This town is alive With lights that blind keep me awake Put my hood up, unlace and tie The street fills my mind Don't control what I'm into London calls me a stranger A traveller Ohoohohh This is now my home, My home Oh Woah Burning on the back street Oh Woah Stuck here, sitting in the back seat Oh Woah And I'm blazing on the street What I do isn't upto you And if the city never sleeps then that makes two The pavement is my friend It'll take me where I need to go If I find it trips me up And puts me down This is not what I'm used to The shop across the road It fills my needs and keeps me company When I need it Voices beat through my walls I don't think I'm gonna make it Past tomorrow London calls me a stranger A traveller Ohoohohh This is now my home, My home Oh Woah Burning on the back street Oh Woah Stuck here, sitting in the back seat Oh Woah And I'm blazing on the street What I do isn't upto you And if the city never sleeps then that makes two And my lungs hurt And my ears bled With the sounds of the city life Echoed in my head Do I need this, To keep me alive? The traffic stops and starts but I Need to move alone London calls me a stranger This is now my home, Home Oh Woah Burning on the back street Oh Woah Stuck here, sitting in the back seat Oh Woah And I'm blazing on the street What I do isn't upto you And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
