Lyrics

Welcome to the mad town
That we live in now
Somebody to ask me for a fag
Grab my wallet, okay fine

But it's alright, I like
Walking at night
Hope that you enjoy my transport card
Apart from that there's not too much

Didn't want to soil my shoes
But then a girl's shout broke the silence
Of the night, I ran fast like a lightning
He said "tie my laces bitch", I said
"You better have my footprint"

I take you by the hand
We'll wait for the sun to rise
But you know it's not right
The city keeps quiet as though nothing had happened

Same traces on the ground
Every window shut up, shut down
The fire in your eyes comes out
'Cause it's not the first time

You talk to me with sanity
I feel like Montag looking at Clarisse
Your eyes have seen the top of a mountain
You never attempted to reach

Today's the day, you say
They're not gonna get away,
No, you're not afraid
Because salamanders don't burn in the flames (no)

I take you by the hand
We'll wait for the sun to rise
But you know it's not right
The city keeps quiet as though nothing had happened

Same traces on the ground
Every window shut up, shut down
The fire in your eyes comes out
'Cause it's not the first time

I take you by the hand
We'll wait for the sun to rise
But you know it's not right
The city keeps quiet as though nothing had happened

Same traces on the ground
But now there's thousands of eyes in town
The fire in your eyes lights out
'Cause this is the last time
