Handsome Furs Hate This City - Handsome Furs

Woke up with blankets and buildings with jaws

Stuck to the sheets, clammy with noon

We wish for night-time, a darkening screen

Hoping the heart is just a machine

Oh, there was home

Oh, there was home

This one is vicious, a sinister lean

We haunted the staircase where small ghosts have been

We knew that heaven was stretched out and wide

Pinned to the sky, pinned to the sky

Oh, there was home

Oh, there was home

Oh, life is long and hollow

Oh, life is long and hollow

Oh, life is long and hollow

Oh, life is long and hollow

We hate this city, filled with drones

We hate this city, filled with drones

We hate this city, filled with drones

We hate this city, filled with drones

So black out a million screens

And wires up the floor

Baby we can get you anything you want

Anytime you want

But you’ll wonder what its for

So black out a million screams

And wire ourselves to the floor

Baby we can get you anything you want

Anytime you want

But you’ll wonder what it’s for
