The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (The Postal Service Cover) Lyrics

Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty and I am barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering whats buried underneath
Where I am
Yeah

Wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters
Adherent to my chest
Tells your new friends
That I am a visiter here
And I am not permanent

And the only thing
Keeping me dry is
You seem so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your doorkey
Explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

And the district sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights
And sent the autos swerving in to 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
