The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (The Postal Service cover) (Birdy 2011)

Текст песни Birdy - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (The Postal Service cover) (Birdy 2011)

Smeared black ink
Your face is ashen and I'm barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
What's buried underneath

Where I am
Where I am

I'll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
Tells your new friends
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent
And the only thing
Keeping me dry is

Where I am (You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex)
Where I am (A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting)
Where I am (And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving)
(Why I was the one worth leaving)

D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight

Where I am (You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex)
Where I am (A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting)
Where I am (And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving)
(Why I was the one worth leaving)
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights (where I am)
And leave the autos swerving into the loneliest evening (where I am)
And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
