Hotel at Home

Sleep 'til you wake, naturally

Don't squander this precious opportunity

There's always a knock

No matter what the signs say

Everything you've done is washed away

This room isn't really yours anyway

Curl up and watch

Lock up extended stay

The record moves, the needle stays

The city was never yours anyway

Black-out shades

Can't keep out the day

Now close your eyes and try to sleep

Never put in drawers what you mean to keep

And the pile grows bigger

Right outside your door

You are away even when you are home

Feel free to stay even when I am gone

At least for a day let us be forgotten

'Cause we'll be a long time gone

When they scrub your sheets, the streets got it too

A new city moved in under you

And you can't remember

What you came to do

Make yourself a name, erase yourself for good

Or just pull up to the bar in a new neighborhood

And you're always a stranger

When you pay your rent

You are away even when you are home

Feel free to stay even when I am gone

At least for a day let me be forgotten

'Cause we'll be a long time gone

You are away even when you are home

Feel free to stay even when I am gone

At least for a day let us be forgotten

'Cause we'll be a long time gone
