This City Kills

This City Kills - Janove Ottesen

Written by：Janove Ottesen

Another day's gone by

And I've still got all my pieces in place

I have to say that I'm amazed

I've been fooling

Traffic and alcohol

Cigarettes and medicine

And so on

I've done it all and I'm still going strong

But there's no doubt about it

This city holds a lot of thrills

But it ain't got no substitute

For mountains and hills

And all the children always end up popping pills

And the radio keeps saying this city kills

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

Another day's gone by

And this city is getting ready to explode

That's what it feel like anyway

But how would I know

But I can't sit around and wait

For something to happen no more

That's why I'm walking right out of that door

There's no doubt about this city holds a lot of thrills

But it ain't got no substitute for mountains and hills

And all the children always end up popping pills

And on the radio the newsman always

Keeps repeting that this city kills

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

To catch me when I fall

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

I'm driving my car through the pouring rain

Wash off all the wounds and leave no stains

Being out looking in makes me feel more sane

I'm never driving in to look out again

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

To catch me when I fall

Oh baby

I need you to catch me when I fall

I need you to catch me when I fall

I need you to catch me when I fall

Baby
