This City

I've been seeing lonely people in crowded rooms Covering their old heartbreaks with new tattoos It's all about smoke screens and cigarettes Looking through low lights at silhouettes But all I see is lonely people in crowded rooms This city's gonna break my heart This city's gonna love me then leave me alone This city's got me chasin' stars It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong? This city's gonna break my heart She's always gonna break your heart I remember mornings where my head didn't hurt And I remember nights when art didn't feel like work She wakes up at noon and she's out 'til three She leaves her perfume all over me But I remember mornings where my head didn't hurt Oh, this city's gonna break my heart (It's gonna break my heart) This city's gonna love me then leave me alone This city's got me chasin' stars (It's got me chasin' stars) It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong? This city's gonna break my heart She's always gonna break your heart She got a hold on me She got me wrapped 'round her finger She got a hold on me She got me wrapped 'round her finger This city's gonna break my heart This city's gonna love me then leave me alone (It's gonna love me then leave me alone) This city's got me chasin' stars It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong? This city's gonna break my heart She's always gonna break your heart This city's gonna break my heart She's always gonna break your heart
