Lyrics Francis And The Lights – My Citys Gone
Text:
They boarded up my favorite bar
The Frenchman lost his restaurant
And the secret alleys were rearranged
I woke one day and it had changed
My city’s gone
My city’s gone
I lost another one
On forty-three, my heart once beat
On forty-five, I came alive
And there was a spirit, so young and free
It spoke to you, it spoke to me
(Kanye West):
My city’s gone (my city, oh oh)
Oh no, my city’s gone (my city’s gone)
I lost another one
I met a man who coughed and swore
That it had been changing since it was born
That it was I and nothing more
From twenty-three to thirty-four
My city’s gone
My city’s gone
And I have to go
My city’s gone
I still found me back in the mall
I will not decline
Still feeling lost and nothing more
I feel lost in time
Does anybody happen to know (happen to know)
Way after I’m
Still feeling lost and manageable
Tell it all from the heart
I’m sitting out at the bar
Tell it all that I’m making my way
