The City (Firecracker) Lyrics & Tabs by Unwoman
The City (Firecracker)
guitar chords lyrics
I've walked all around the city
All the places you and I went
This is not bittersweet
It is thoroughly tainted
I could try to reclaim it
For me and future loves
But my mechanism's broken
I'll never clean enough
I am a firecracker disguised as a girl
I am self-hating predator
Yet for every song of Trouble that I sing
There is new prey waiting in the wings
You know I'd choose death if it weren't so permanent
I've never been good at commitment
I could run away but I'd never escape
You know I'd choose death if it weren't so permanent
I've never been good at commitment
I could run away but I'd never escape
My id, my need, this waste
I walk all around the city
To survey the damage I have done
Broken hearts on every street corner
And yours is the loudest one
Still I'll stay here in the city
If just to assert my right
I won't give up these willing victims
Not without a fight
I am a firecracker disguised as a girl
I am self-hating predator
Yet for every song of Trouble that I sing
There is new prey waiting in the wings
You know I'd choose death if it weren't so permanent
I've never been good at commitment
I could run away but I'd never escape
My id, my need, this waste
