๐ Lyrics
O scrape out your bones and sing out your song
For the shit that you dig up, the shit that went wrong
Set sail for the future and don't be lookin' back
When your nervous system is under attack
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there
In the city
Don't be lookin' back
Today we were walkin', then we were drivin'
You said let's go out, up to the limestone
Bar on the corner, fight in the street
And the fog-horn-ing silence after the deed
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there
In the city
Don't fall asleep
Or you'll be sure to weep your life away
Down there in the city
All your dreams are like paper in the fire
Remember the beginning when you wanted to fly
Over the sun, over the skyscrapers high
You were born for more than this
O scrape out your bones and sing out your song
For the shit that you dig up, the shit that went wrong
Set sail for the future and don't be lookin' back
When your nervous system is under attack
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there in the city
Don't fall asleep
Or you'll be sure to weep your life away
Down there in the city
Fight in the street
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
For the shit that you dig up, the shit that went wrong
Set sail for the future and don't be lookin' back
When your nervous system is under attack
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there
In the city
Don't be lookin' back
Today we were walkin', then we were drivin'
You said let's go out, up to the limestone
Bar on the corner, fight in the street
And the fog-horn-ing silence after the deed
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there
In the city
Don't fall asleep
Or you'll be sure to weep your life away
Down there in the city
All your dreams are like paper in the fire
Remember the beginning when you wanted to fly
Over the sun, over the skyscrapers high
You were born for more than this
O scrape out your bones and sing out your song
For the shit that you dig up, the shit that went wrong
Set sail for the future and don't be lookin' back
When your nervous system is under attack
Don't settle down
Don't wait around
Cause you don't know what you find there in the city
Don't fall asleep
Or you'll be sure to weep your life away
Down there in the city
Fight in the street
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
Don't be late now
I won't wait now
Don't be late no
City city city city
