Hedy Blaazer - Fluorescent

I only like the city when it's 4am and cold
And people wander 'round the streets doing things that they're not told to in the day
I only like the city when I feel like I'm alone
And I can't see those empty faces all in masses buying everything they're sold
I've been waiting 'round here for as long as I have known
And the air's so thick and dirty it feels like every breath I take that I'm on fire
So light me up and lie me down I just want to feel something now
I'd do anything to feel a bit alive
I only like the city when I hit the open road
And the city lights ignite the sky it feels like we defied where we came from
I only like the city when I'm on my way back home
And all the time I sold to someone else comes back to me and feels like it's my own
I've been waiting 'round here for as long as I have known
With fluorescent lights and blockout blinds I cant tell if I'm hungry or if I'm tired
So chew me up and spit me out yeah I can almost taste it now
I'd do anything to feel a bit alive
I can see your eyes behind your shiny sunglasses
Glazed with monotony of 8am bus passes
Like a good woman you do what you need to survive
You'd still do anything to feel a bit alive
I'd do anything to feel a bit alive
