The Postal Service - The Di... Lyrics & Chords

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 visitor 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 your 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
