The City by Ruby Randall Lyrics

Sleepy eyes
Worn like some kind of disguise
I know that you're wide awake
Wide awake inside

You blame it on the city
You blame it on your job
You blame it on the TV
How you ain't got no god

I couldn't have seen
Through those foggy eyes
Can't see far beneath
You wouldn't have known
'Cause you're so g*ddamn busy
Maybe you're afraid
That when it slows it'll get heavy

And maybe you'd rather float in a salt filled pool
Making waves but no commotion
I"d rather be, somewhere in between
The fight and the flight
In waking and in dreams
In waking and in dreams (X4)

Maybe you're afraid
That when it slows it'll get heavy
And maybe you'd rather float
In a salt-filled pool
Making waves but no commotion

Waves, but no commotion (X3)
