lyrics
DOWN TO THE CITY
Down to the city anymore
I'll never go back to the city anymore
They tell me there's light in the city but I know
That I don't belong
Back to the city anymore
I'll never go back to the city anymore
I could lie forever in these streets but I won't
Cause I don't belong
Let our minds forget all the city songs
As we shed our skin in the summer sun
No more pretending to get the joke
Cause the road says home is the last of the stops
Down to the city anymore
I'll never go down to the city anymore
They tell me there's light in the city but I know
That I don't belong
I left the city with the dawn
When there was no one and my witness is the sun
Cause we were the only to see its honest form
So bare in the morn
Let our minds forget all the city songs
As we shed our skin in the summer sun
No more pretending to get the joke
Cause the road says home is the last of the stops
Down to the city anymore
I'll never go back to the city anymore
They tell me there's light in the city but I know
That I don't belong
Back to the city anymore
I'll never go back to the city anymore
I could lie forever in these streets but I won't
Cause I don't belong
Let our minds forget all the city songs
As we shed our skin in the summer sun
No more pretending to get the joke
Cause the road says home is the last of the stops
Down to the city anymore
I'll never go down to the city anymore
They tell me there's light in the city but I know
That I don't belong
I left the city with the dawn
When there was no one and my witness is the sun
Cause we were the only to see its honest form
So bare in the morn
Let our minds forget all the city songs
As we shed our skin in the summer sun
No more pretending to get the joke
Cause the road says home is the last of the stops
