A City to Die For

[Verse 1]

Sharing secrets in the present tense

I know the feeling that you're up against

I won't give you what you want, won't give you what you

Another craving for a cigarette

Another bruise from fists I'd rather forget

Won't give you what you want, won't give you what you need

[Chorus]

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city to die for

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city to die for

[Verse 2]

Another day goes by where I'm

Seeing you all through the terrifying eyes

Of someone so unfaithful

And I would hate you too if I

Saw you converse with the kids at the edge of the common room

Yeah, I swear that it's true

[Chorus]

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city to die for

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city

You took a job in the city to die for

[Outro]

And you can be who you want in the city

And you can act like a prick in the city

Let's say goodbye, run away to the city tonight, oh
