Lyrics

Smeared black ink your face is ashen And I'm barely listening to last demands I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath Where I am Where I am I'll wear my badge a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest That tells your new friends I am a visitor here I am not permanent And the only thing keeping me dry is Where I am (you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex) Where I am (a stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting) Where I am (and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving) (Why I was the one worth leaving) D.C. sleeps alone tonight D.C. sleeps alone tonight Where I am (you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex) Where I am (a stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting) Where I am (and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving) (Why I was the one worth leaving) The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights And leave the autos swerving into the loneliest evening And I am finally seeing Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving
