Summer doesn't mean a fucking thing a 6am
Just swearing off vices and shrugging of regrets
Everyday I make a promise that I'll soon be back in bed
Scrape the sleep from my eyes and facilitate these ends
Time is lynched, leached and burned
These eyes are fixed and they yearn
For the clock to turn
A Stones throw away from another repercussion
Some reprieve printed on a payslip
Collect these checks, throw them in that empty ocean
I'm treading shallow but I'm still out of my depth
But the shot glasses are empty, control is at bay
One to five are history and on the sixth day
We'll wake up shaking with our mouths cracked and dry
Heads fucking pounding our eyes fixed on the sky
What are we going to do? Do with all this time?
I'm not going to waste it worrying myself blind 'cause:
I'm going back, I'm going back
Back to the city tonight
And its hard not to regret all that squandered time
Spent locking everything on the inside
It's been three years since I started to hide
But I'm going back to the city tonight.
