Emmy the Great - City Song lyrics
The city called me so I came 
It isn't mine to question what it said 
I sleep until the point when I'm awake 
I walk until there's nothing left to trek 
And everyone is looking for an answer 
And everyone is waiting for a break 
I came and I was bored of it soon after 
But I had nowhere to go and so I stayed 
I dreamed a lifetime of this place 
It seemed an awful thing to waste 
Well the morning fills my mouth up with decay 
I like it, it reminds me how you taste 
Sometimes I feel you rising up behind me like the wind 
But I still try to look away 
What will you look like when you're old? 
(What will you look like when you're old?) 
What will I do if I don't know you? 
(What will I do if I don't know you?) 
I guess that I decided not to ask the day I took the road Emmy the Great - City Song - http://motolyrics.com/emmy-the-great/city-song-lyrics.html
Down to the city as it called 
Sun making silhouettes of gauze 
I don't remember you at all 
The city called me and I came 
It isn't mine to question why 
Sometimes the clouds will rise ahead, I hear your name 
It's like a choir in the sky 
What will you look like when you're old? 
(What will you look like when you're old?) 
What will I do if I don't know you? 
(What will I do if I don't know you?) 
I guess that I decided not to know the day I took the road 
Down to the city as it called 
Sun making silhouettes of gauze 
I don't remember you at all 
They pulled a human from my waist 
It had your mouth, it had your face 
I would have kept it if I'd stayed.
