Bilingual
Smeared black ink, your face is [Incomprehensible]
And I'm barely listening to last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
What's buried underneath
Where I am, where I am
ย
I'll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends
I am a visitor here, I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry
Is where I am
(Gaudy apartment complex)
Where I am
(Explaining that I am just visiting)
Where I am
(I am finally seeing)
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
ย
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
Where I am
(Gaudy apartment complex)
Where I am
(Explaining that I am just visiting)
Where I am
(Why I was the one worth leaving)
Why I was the one worth leaving
ย
The district sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving
Into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
