This Is My City

Well, I hear the hum of the horizon scream incessantly I feel the burning and the yearning of its mystery Anywhere but here, anywhere but here Well, If curiosity calls me, let it kill me So, with everyone in my life that I had ever vaguely met Clinging dead onto my arm, a rigor mortis tourniquet I take their sordid, cold confessions, and their sorrowful regrets Everywhere, wherever I roam, I know I'll never be alone again Take my life away And start again, start again Start again Nothing seems to sway This aching longing I've been feeling I was born in this city Thought I'd die here too But the skyline's been changing And I've grown to hate the view, I There's so much life to live And I lost my lust for it I turned a blind eye to the olive branches There's so much love to give But I've given everything I set my fires and I'm fresh out of matches Take my life away And start again, start again Start again Nothing seems to sway This aching longing I've been feeling And start again, start again Start again Nothing seems to sway This aching longing I've been feeling Where I'm going, only the road will know If it's a dream or a nightmare So I'll grit my teeth I'll burn every bridge And then I'll have no choice but to die there Where I'm going, only the road will know If it's a dream or a nightmare So I'll grit my teeth I'll burn every bridge And then I'll have no choice but to die there There's so much life to live And I lost my lust for it And I lost my lust for it There's so much love to give But I've given everything Everything There's so much life to live And I lost my lust for it And I lost my lust for it There's so much love to give But I've given everything But I've given everything
