about

A song about one drunken night in the city.

lyrics

Leeds

You are not the one that I will see as I am falling over/
The crowded streets are reeling as they drop their nervous shelter/
Now you’re with friends

Each of us will love the other swimming in the misty night/
We’re jumping deep in into the filthy city’s yellow light/
Surrounded by fighting/
Soaked and smiling/

None of us are honest, but careless so we won’t believe/ They’ll be an end to it, they’ll be any end to it/
Our dizzy control is hungry for more debauchery, debauchery, debauchery/

(But you) Fumble when you tell me why x3/
We both lie (NO)/

Don’t let me convince you, it’s not true/
Those nights we could hide what we knew/
And play the fool/

None of us are honest, I don’t know when you’ll find me out/
There’s nothing past this, there’s nothing past this/

We sit together, we watch the city arm in arm/
And we can hold that, and we can hold that/

Farewell that night/
