"Lonely Town" lyrics
"Lonely Town"
I've been working overtime
And I can't get you off my mind
I sleep in the pouring rain
When will you come home again?
[Hook x2:]
Spinnin' like a Gravitron
When I was just a kid
I always thought that things would change
But they never did
I'm hanging on to the end of this rope
Somewhere on the outskirts of hope
Life without you not around
Another kid in Lonely Town
And I'm
[Hook x2]
Now I'm standing outside your house
And I'm wondering, Baby
Do you hear the phone when I call?
Do you feel the thud when I fall?
Do you hear the crack when I break?
Did you lock the door when it shut?
Did you see the knife when it cut?
Do you keep your ear to the ground?
For the kid in Lonely Town (Lonely Town)
Lonely Town
Kid in Lonely Town (Lonely Town)
Lonely Town
[Hook x2]
Do you hear the phone when I call?
Do you hear the crack when I break?
Do you lock the door when it shut?
Do you keep your ear to the ground?
For the kid in Lonely Town (Lonely Town)
Lonely Town (Lonely Town)
Lonely Town
Lonely Town

Keane - "Everybody's Changing" You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it
I don't see how you can
You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in your eyes
Says everybody's changing
And I don't know why...
Passion Pit - "Carried Away" Since my heart is golden
I've got sense to hold in
Tempted just to make an ugly scene
No I'm not as proper, my money's in copper
Ripped down from the brownstones to the street
Listen, I'm your...
Muse - "Dead Inside" Dead inside!
Revere a million prayers
And draw me into your holiness
But there's nothing there
Light only shines from those who share
Unleash a million drones
And confine me then erase me babe
Do...
Future Islands - "Ran" Ingest, where it goes, nobody sees but me
So perfect and so sweet
But the rest, feels incomplete
Like the rabbit's foot I keep
In the locket, with no key
And I can't take it, I can't take this world...
