Birdy lyrics : "District Sleeps Alone Tonight"

Smeared black ink... your face is all sweat
And I'm barely listening to last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath

Where I am
Where I am


I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my
Chest
That tells your new friends I am a visitor here...

I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is
Where I am (You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex)

Where I am (A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just
Visiting)
Where I am (And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving)

(Why I was the one worth leaving)

D.C. sleeps alone tonight

D.C. sleeps alone tonight
Where I am (You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex)
Where I am (A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just

Visiting)
Where I am (And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving)
(Why I was the one worth leaving)


The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And leave the autos swerving into the loneliest evening

And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
