pigeon pit - keys to the city lyrics

do you know what sucks
get left unloved
i get bored of the bar
i found a better spot
to hold our treasured conversations
away from all those prying eyes

let me drop a pin, i got a place to meet
i leave a pair of bolt cutters under my back seat
call ’em the keys to the city
i call ’em the keys to the city, baby, yeah

you got a sh+t+eating grin
and a beer between your thighs
i can tell where we’re going from the look in your eyes
wherever i go it stays with me
no matter how far along its been

well i can hang my feet 40 stories down
i’ll see how far that i can spit
i kinda like this town
the special way you know a city you only get by walking around

i wanna feel the cold that leaves summer out of sight
i found a tall boy’s eyes in the pocket knife
just like the b+tton on his levi’s
cut into my thumb
i wanna feast you baby
give you what you need
they can lock up all the food
i made a copy of the key
and tell the world
just make you a criminal
when you really try to love someone

and you don’t gotta talk about it
n0body needs to know
jackie’s got a six pack and another place to go

another rooftop conversation
tell you what i’ve been thinking about
kansas city’s just as big as
battlefield behind my house

but katie’s got a junkyard
danny knows a bando
jackie’s got a six pack
at a water tower only we know

i’ll tell you under whispered half tones
there’s something down in mississippi i found
in a corner of my dark thoughts
in an old abandoned shotgun house and
it’s raining in a hotel pool and
casey’s in a shut down school and
we watch a fire in a tenderloin apartment
sirens crying like they know what that meant
dilapidation’s on the inside
a city choking out the night sky
it’s gonna be another late night:
whatever makes you feel alive
