Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

I can't believeI had to be sucked in by this. I should have known what this maelstrom would escalate to. How could a whirlwind sweep through withouht destroying anything in its path? It's tough. I was so afraid I would sink again. After I had managed to run away fast enough from that ominous shadow, the light had to shine wrongly and get me swallowed again. I need to run faster. But my feet hurts. I wanted to take a pen to stab it My stomach hurt. I wanted to puke blood at lunch, all over the soggy subway sandwich and gooey cookie. My head hurt, I wanted to roll over and lie on the busy road to sleep. Sleep to dream. A dream in which I would wake up in a pool of blood. The blood flowing like a river, guiding me to the right path. Down the drain it goes. Down, down, down.
