Lyrics : The District Sleeps Alone Tonight

Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty
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
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 (Where I am)
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key (Where I am)
Explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing (Where I am)
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 (Where I am)
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key (Where I am)
Explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing (Where I am)
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
The district sleeps alone tonight (Where I am)
After the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving (Where I am)
Into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing (Where I am)
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
