|
A sleepless night in the city |
|
No peace and quiet in the city |
|
It's hotter than the water from a boiler in |
|
The basement of |
|
HellIn this low rent, walk-up, broken-down hotel |
|
Counting the cracks on the ceiling |
|
Flat on my back, and |
|
I'm feeling |
|
Lower than the roaches in the tunnels of the one and the nine |
|
And the clock says that |
|
I'm half past losing my mind |
|
Through the tick tock tick, |
|
I can hear the faucet drip |
|
When the neighbors brawl, |
|
I can hear 'em through the wall |
|
But I'm waiting, |
|
I keep waiting(Chorus)' |
|
Cause I want you |
|
I want you back again, |
|
I can remember when you and |
|
I were one |
|
And I want to |
|
I wanna change your mind |
|
So I'm gonna bide my time, bearing my misery |
|
Till you come to me |
|
High noon, same room |
|
This is when it gets so suffocating the air sits |
|
Heavy, like the weight of my regret for ever |
|
Letting you go |
|
And it don't matter whether the windows are opened or closed |
|
There's a beep, beep beat from the traffic in the street |
|
And a bang, bang, bang, like a hammer in my brain |
|
As I'm fading, going crazy(Chorus x2) |
|
Hey, hey, hey |
|
Just you wait and see |
|
You'll come back to me (x4) |
