The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - Remastered

Smeared black ink
 Your palms are sweaty
 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)
 ♪
 I'll wear my badge
 A vinyl sticker with big block letters
 Adhering 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) You seem so out of context
 In this gaudy apartment complex
 (Where I am) A stranger with your door key
 Explaining that I'm just visiting
 (Where I am) And I am finally seeing
 Why I was the one worth leaving
 Why I was the one worth leaving

 D.C. sleeps alone tonight

 (Where I am) You seem so out of context
 In this gaudy apartment complex
 (Where I am) A stranger with your door key
 Explaining that I'm just visiting
 (Where I am) And I am finally seeing
 Why I was the one worth leaving
 Why I was the one worth leaving
 (Where I am) The district sleeps alone tonight
 After the bars turn out their lights
 (Where I am) And send the autos swerving
 Into the loneliest evening
 (Where I am) 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
