The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - Birdy

作词：Ben Gibbard/Jimmy Tamborello

Smeared black ink

Your face is ashen 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

Tells your new friends

I am a visitor here

I am not permanent

And the only thing

Keeping me dry is

Where I am

Gaudy apartment complex

Where I am

Explaining that I am just visiting

Where I am

I was the one worth leaving

Why I was the one worth leaving

DC sleeps alone tonight

DC sleeps alone tonight

Where I am

Gaudy apartment complex

Where I am

Explaining that I am just visiting

Where I am

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
