lyrics

this city is gonna kill you
this city is gonna break your heart
the little things no longer thrill you
it's the little things that tear us apart

the best of tragedies always end this way

when every word is loaded
with resignation and apathy
and every phrase is coded
to disguise what we truly mean
and with this lullaby i'll sing myself
to sleeplessness again
counting regrets and misgivings
memories of places i've never been

but it's still fine
prick your finger sign your soul away
a dotted line
the best of tragedies always end this way
this city is gonna kill you

broken tiles - piles of refuse
cigarettes and cheap amphetamines
all you know is they're out to get you
holy water and bleach - scrub till you're clean
