lyrics

CITY OF LIGHT
Getting out of the farm
I'm going down to the city of light
Getting out of this barn
I'm going down to the city of light
People around here don't feel bright
Fancy a beer and a fight
Don't waste your time thinking about the future
Leave it behind
Leave it behind
Ain't no place for a book of beliefs in a land full of plastic people No place for the seasons to breathe
No time for your love to conceded
So, I'll get out this farm
I'll go down to the city of light
Getting out of the farm
I'm going down to the city of light
They say a road of debauchery led to a key to a kingdom And I chose that path a long, long time ago
And yet the only excess I find Lies in your pale blue wanton eyes Your daringly thoughtful stare
Your calm yet majestic glare Won't you come with me today We'll get out of this farm We'll go down to the city of light Getting out of the farm
We're going down to the city of light
