Dead City Emily (demo) Songtext
von Marissa Nadler

I was coming apart those days
I don′t give a damn about the way
Colors on the trees change from red to green
It's a dead city, Emily
Oh I was a blaze, still, I had to stay
With that band, Emily
Oh I saw that light today
Opened up the door
Any other other man would′ve run, run away
Em was stuck inside the moor
Any other man would've run, run away
Emily, he's something more
I was coming apart those days
I don′t give a damn about the way
Birds fly in the breeze, things you say to me
It′s a dead city, Emily
I cannot recall loving this at all


It's a dead city in between
I saw the light today
Opened up the door
Any other man would′ve run, run away
He's the eye inside my store
Any other man would′ve run, run away
Emily, he's something more
Oh it looks so bright today
Opened up the door
Any other man would′ve run run away
Emily is something more
Any other man would've run, run away
From the house and to the shore
Dead city, Emily
Dead city, Emily
Dead city, Emily
Dead city, Emily
