Eden Rain - Rent In The City
I wake up at half past 8Paint on a smile but I'm running late
Been up half the night, counting the ways
This feeling gets into my brain
And sits in my lungs and aches up my bones
I unplugged the TV, I turned off the phone
I moved to the city I thought that it loved me
The city loves no one the city is hungry
The city is paid by the hour,
The city is a grown man who cries in the shower,
The city's full of space- noone can afford
The city is homeless, The city is bored
But I think I can make a home out of you
I think I can hack a city with you
Come see me, move with me
Spend all our money on rent in the city
Why would I wanna be anywhere else?
And why would you wanna be anywhere else?
Why would I keep this to myself.
You get used to the fumes and the queues
And standing close to strangers, and smelling their perfume
Or we can go East to a party
And reinvent ourselves cause we don't know anybody.
Moved to the city and it followed me home
Moved to the city and now I'm all alone
The city has children, the city is beauty,
It's streetlights on wide roads- the current runs through me
The city is paid by the hour,
The city is a grown man who cries in the shower,
The city's full of space- noone can afford
The city is homeless, The city is bored
But I think I can make a home out of you
I think I can hack a city with you
Come see me, move with me
Spend all our money on rent in the city
Why would I wanna be anywhere else?
And why would you wanna be anywhere else?
Why would I keep this to myself.
But I think I can make a home out of you
I think I can hack a city with you
Come see me, move with me
Spend all our money on rent in the city
Why would I wanna be anywhere else?
And why would you wanna be anywhere else?
Why would I keep this to myself.
Skip town to town, running
Pick up my feet, get out the door, leave in a hurry
Pack your bags and we'll leave this place
We'll leave this place
Seems strange and it's funny
Pick up my feet, get out the door, leave in a hurry
Pack your bags and we'll leave this place
We'll leave this place
