Janove Ottesen This City Kills song lyrics

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"

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

I need you to catch me when I fall.
