Lyrics : The City (Firecracker)

I walked all around the city
All the places you and I went
This is not bittersweet
It is thoroughly tainted
I could try to reclaim it
For me and my future lovers
But my mechanism's broken
Won't ever be clean enough
Ahh, a-a-a ah
Ahh, a-ah

I am a firecracker disguised as a girl
I am a self-hating predator
Yet for every song of trouble that I sing
There is new prey waiting in the wings
You know I'd choose death if it weren't so permanent
I've never been good at commitment
I could run away but I'd never have escaped
My id, my need, this waste
Ahh, a-a-a ah
Ahh, a-ah

I walked all around the city
To survey the damage I have done
Broken hearts on every street corner
And yours is the loudest one
But I stay here in the city
If just to assert my right
I won't give up these willing victims
Not without a fight
Ahh, a-a-a ah
Ahh, a-ah
Ahh, ohh
Ahh, a-ah
I am a firecracker disguised as a girl
I am a self-hating predator
Yet for every song of trouble that I sing
There is new prey waiting in the wings
You know I'd choose death if it weren't so permanent
I've never been good at commitment
I could run away but I'd never have escaped
My id, my need, this waste

Ahh, a-a-a ah
Ahh, a-ah
Ahh, ohh
Ahh, a-ah
Ahh, a-a-a ah
Ahh, ahh
All around the city (ahh, a-a-a-ah)
All around the city (ahh, a-ah)
