bright eyes - the city has sex (companion version) lyrics

[verse 1]
the city has s+x with itself, i suppose
as the concrete collides, the scenery grows
the lonely, once bandaged, lay fully exposed
havin’ undressed their wounds for each other

[verse 2]
and there’s a boy in a bas+m+nt with a four+track machine
he’s been strummin’ and screamin’ all night down there
the tape hiss will cover the words that he sings
they say it’s better to bury your sadness
in a graveyard or garden that waits for thе spring
to awake from its sleep and burst into green
[chorus]
and i’ve cried
and you’d think i’d bе better for it
but the sadness just sleeps, it stays in your spine
for the rest of your life
and i’ve learned
and you’d think i’d be somethin’ more now
but it just goes to show, it’s not what you know
it is what you were thinkin’ at the time

[verse 3]
this feeling’s familiar, i’ve been here before
in a kitchen this quiet i waited for
a sign or just something that might reassure me of anything close
to meaning or motion with reason to move
i need somethin’ that i wanna be close to

[chorus]
and i scream
but i still don’t know why i do it
’cause the sound never stays, just swells and decays
so what is the point?
why try to fight what is now so certain?
the truth that i am just a passing event
that will be forgotten
