Listen & view The Delgados - The City Consumes Us lyrics & tabs

Streets like the rest of them
But I can't forget
Faces familiar and full of regret
I hated this place
And all who came from it
Far from the scenery
Far from the road
Far from the greenery
Lifted my load
We boarded the train
To come back again
I was convinced in my mind
I was not of this kind
Faced with finality
I choose calamity
See us
Watch how this city consumes us
Watch how this city destroys us
Prices I'm happy to pay
Walking on pathways
I walked with my friends
Hearing that some of them
Have met bitter ends
How can you conceive
Your friends will be grieving for you?
Running from memories
I'll only deny
Doesn't make remedies
They still survive
I hated this place
And I have come from it
I was convinced in my mind
I was not of this kind
Faced with reality
I choose frivolity
See us
Watch how this city consumes us
Watch how this city destroys us
Cost I am happy to pay
See it coming near
See you walking close to me
Fear inside my head
Fear is never far from me
Walk you in my side
Walk you in the day we met
We will disappear
We will reappear
We can disappear
We can reappear
See us
Watch how this city consumes us
Watch how this city destroys us
Prices I'm happy to pay
