Handsome Furs Hate This City

Woke up with blankets and buildings with jaws Stuck to the sheets, clammy with noon We wish for night-time, a darkening screen Hoping the heart is just a machine Oh, there was home Oh, there was home This one is vicious, a sinister lean We haunted the staircase where small ghosts have been We knew that heaven was stretched out and wide Pinned to the sky, pinned to the sky Oh, there was home Oh, there was home Oh, life is long and hollow Oh, life is long and hollow Oh, life is long and hollow Oh, life is long and hollow We hate this city and its drone We hate this city and its drone We hate this city and its drone We hate this city and its drone So black out a million screens And wires up the floor Baby we can get you anything you want Anytime you want But you'll wonder what its for So black out a million screams And wire ourselves to the floor Baby we can get you anything you want Anytime you want But you'll wonder what it's for
