Capitol City (Single 2019)

Текст песни The Handsome Family - Capitol City (Single 2019)

Capital city skyline photo
Skyscrapers shine, the sun's so
Low in the sky
Secretaries at the hot dog vendors
Cabs honk at the bicycle messengers
Rolling by

I can't call with a subway token
Anyway the phones are all broken
I wish you were here
Better yet I wish I was there with you
You wouldn't like it here
You should stay right there
Breathe in that country air
You wouldn't like it here

Capital towers radiator steam vents
Scream along with the clarinets and arguments
Echo down the hall
I can't sleep, I can't wake up
I'm shaken up, maybe we should break up

I wish you were here
Better yet I wish I was there with you
You wouldn't like it here
You should stay right there
Breathe in that country air
You wouldn't like it here

Capital city skyline photo
Picture postcard sign, the moon's so
Low in the sky
I can't smile when my heart's still broken
Far away in love and unspoken
I wish you were here
