How I Spent My Time in the City Songtext
von Aireline

These streets are cold
And some things just can′t be told
As I wait alone
But you know how that goes
When everything becomes a blur to me
The choirs sing the street songs that I've come to know
And the world is turning into the city today


I spend my days traveling underground
In bright subways
Until the sun goes down
I spend my nights
Growing flowers by candlelight
In dark hotels
Until the sun comes up
And we can go for a walk
So we can talk
Or we can say nothing at all
So let′s go for a drive
They'll never find us alive
If we say nothing
Cause the world is turning into the city

Sometimes I wonder if I will ever leave the city
Sometimes the air is very hard to breathe in the city
I'm leaving

While all the ghosts are marching in the streets
I make the same mistakes
Please forgive me

Your simple toys
Remind me of the noise
That I once heard
Of motor cars and crashing birds
I stood alone remembering my home
And where we′ll go
When all these buildings turn to stone
This is how I spent my time in the city
