The Postal Service The District Sleeps Alone Tonight Lyrics

phone Send "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" Ringtone to your Cell phone2
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

i'll wear my badge: a vinyl sticker with big block
letters adhered to my chest
tells your new friends: I am a visitor here...
I am not permanent
and the only thing keeping me dry is

you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key explaining that I'm just visiting
and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving

d.c. sleeps alone tonight

you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key explaining that I'm just visiting
and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
the district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
and send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
phone Send "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" Ringtone to your Cell phone2
