The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - The Postal Service

Smeared black ink

Your palms are sweaty

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 wear my badge

A vinyl sticker with big block letters

Adhering 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

You seem so out of context

In this gaudy apartment complex

A stranger with your door key

Explaining that I'm just visiting

And I am finally seeing

Why I was the one worth leaving

Why I was the one worth leaving

D C sleeps alone tonight

You seem so out of context

In this gaudy apartment complex

A stranger with your door key

Explaining that I'm just visiting

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 send 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
