The district sleeps alone tonight

Smeared black ink... your palms are sweaty And i'm barely listening to last demands I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath where i am I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with bigh block letters adherent to my chest That tells your new friends i am a visitory here... I am not permanent And the only thing keeping me dry is where i am You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with yor door key explaining that i am just visiting And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving D.C. sleeps alone tonight You seem so so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with your door key explaining that i am just visiting And i am finally seing why i was the one worth leaving The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving
