The city's mine
Her streets were my playground
When I was a kid
Kicking cans all around
People here know my name
And know my face
But do they know what has died in me
The city's mine
Here nights are my home now
Her dust my drugs
And I still kick cans
I'm gonna leave her now
She won't be my grave
I'm gonna leave here now
So put me on a train and buy me
A one way ticket caus'
I wont come back
I wont come back to town no more
The city's mine
I leave where her heart beats
But I feel its pulse less and less every day
People here know my name
And know my face
But do they know what has died in me
I'm gonna leave her now
She won't be my grave
I'm gonna leave here now
So put me on a train and buy me
A one way ticket caus'
I wont come back
I wont come back to town no more
Her streets were my playground
When I was a kid
Kicking cans all around
People here know my name
And know my face
But do they know what has died in me
The city's mine
Here nights are my home now
Her dust my drugs
And I still kick cans
I'm gonna leave her now
She won't be my grave
I'm gonna leave here now
So put me on a train and buy me
A one way ticket caus'
I wont come back
I wont come back to town no more
The city's mine
I leave where her heart beats
But I feel its pulse less and less every day
People here know my name
And know my face
But do they know what has died in me
I'm gonna leave her now
She won't be my grave
I'm gonna leave here now
So put me on a train and buy me
A one way ticket caus'
I wont come back
I wont come back to town no more
