Lyrics

Let's get stupid drunk on the roof of an abandoned building
At four-thirty in the afternoon
We'll sit in lawn chairs and stare at the people
They all look like ants
I swear that I can see your house from here
And it goes without saying
But it's always said
That tomorrow we will wake up
Inside your bed
With the bitter recollections
Of a romance killed
And another tired night of being unfulfilled

But
Isn't this what you wanted?
Why act so disappointed?
Well, I know that living in the city
Will do that to you
So why do you have to
Always be so goddamn helpless?
Isn't this what you wanted?

So lets pack up our things and douse this building
With the gasoline that we hid under the floorboards
We'll strike one match and make sure
That this city, it never breathes again
And hope that we will be the first ones to go
And I wish it could be simple
But it never will
Because the things that make us stronger
Are the things that kill
And the sooner we can get ourselves out of this
Is the sooner we can learn from this experience

But
Isn't this what you wanted?
Why act so disappointed?
Well, I know that living in the city
Will do that to you
So why do you have to
Always be so goddamn helpless?
Isn't this what you wanted?
