I've been seeing lonely people
In crowded rooms
Covering their old heartbreaks
With new tattoos
It's all about smoke screens and cigarettes
Looking through low lights at silhouettes
But all I see is lonely people
In crowded rooms
This city's gonna break my heart
This city's gonna love me
Then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars
It's been a couple months
Since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing
Where I belong
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart oh
I remember mornings
When my head didn't hurt
And I remember nights
When art didn't feel like work
She wakes up at noon
And she's out 'til three
She leaves her perfume all over me
But I remember mornings
When my head didn't hurt
Oh this city's gonna break my heart
This city's gonna love me
Then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars
It's been a couple months
Since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing
Where I belong
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart
She got a hold on me
She got me wrapped 'round her finger
She got a hold on me
She got me wrapped 'round her finger
This city's gonna break my heart
This city's gonna love me
Then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars
It's been a couple months
Since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing
Where I belong
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart
This city's gonna break my heart hey
She's always gonna break your heart
