zatopeks – city lights lyrics
the city lights up like a cigarettethe moon’s a broken
heart and the stars are set
like peep-holes in an empty sky
i wander lost alone on a sat-rday night
i p-ss the stalinist flats, i p-ss the marxist punks
i p-ss the anarchist graffiti and although i’m drunk
my mind is clear, my heart’s alive
i’ve been through this before and i know that i’ll
survive
i don’t need your eyes, i’ve got the city lights
electric lifeblood flowing through these concrete veins
and i don’t need your truths
i’ve got one of my own…
walking around in circles and i’m laughing at the night
you always said i was a psycho, i’m just trying to
prove you right
and so the cards were stacked, i had no hand to play
the house we built collapsed, that’s why i’m singing
here today
and now i’m heading down to simon-dach, turn right up
by the lights
following the train tracks leading deep into the night
dancing in the gutter, playing football with a stone
turn left down by the bridge and then i take the long
way home
i don’t need your eyes, i’ve got the city lights
electric lifeblood flowing through these concrete veins
and i don’t need your words
i’ve got some of my own
cold dark river keeps on flowing
i watch it from the bridge above
the moon’s just another light that’s glowing
on this heap of concrete that i love
i don’t need your eyes, i don’t need you
