The City (Live At Sticky Studios) - Ed Sheeran (艾德·希兰)[00:00:00]
The city never sleeps[00:00:44]
I hear the people walk by when it's late[00:00:48]
Sirens beat through my window sill[00:00:52]
I can't close my eyes[00:00:55]
Don't control what I'm into[00:00:57]
This town is alive[00:01:02]
With lights that blind keep me awake[00:01:07]
With my hood up and lace untied[00:01:11]
The street fills my mind[00:01:13]
Don't control what I'm into[00:01:15]
London calls me a stranger[00:01:21]
A traveller ohoohohh[00:01:25]
This is now my home my home[00:01:30]
Oh woah[00:01:38]
Burning on the back street[00:01:40]
Oh woah[00:01:42]
Stuck here sitting in the back seat[00:01:44]
Oh woah[00:01:47]
And I'm blazing on the street[00:01:49]
What I do isn't upto you[00:01:51]
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two[00:01:53]
The pavement is my friend[00:01:57]
It'll take me where I need to go[00:02:01]
If I find it trips me up[00:02:05]
And puts me down[00:02:08]
This is not what I'm used to[00:02:10]
The shop across the road[00:02:15]
It fills my needs and keeps me company[00:02:19]
When I need it[00:02:22]
Voices beat through my walls[00:02:23]
I don't think I'm gonna make it[00:02:26]
Past to-mor-roow[00:02:28]
London calls me a stranger[00:02:33]
A traveller ohoohohh[00:02:38]
This is now my home my home[00:02:42]
Oh woah[00:02:50]
Burning on the back street[00:02:53]
Oh woah[00:02:55]
Stuck here sitting in the back seat[00:02:57]
Oh woah[00:03:00]
And I'm blazing on the street[00:03:02]
What I do isn't upto you[00:03:04]
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two[00:03:06]
And my lungs hurt[00:03:09]
And my ears bled[00:03:12]
With the sounds of the city life[00:03:14]
Echoed in my head[00:03:16]
Do I need this[00:03:18]
To keep me alive[00:03:20]
The traffic stops and starts but I[00:03:22]
Need to move along[00:03:25]
Im from a city where the rain won't cease[00:03:29]
Pollution in the air matches that on the street[00:03:31]
The black smoke gets your head in a muddle like[00:03:34]
Walking into elephants syringes in the puddle like[00:03:36]
I was a country boy when I moved out[00:03:38]
Grew up to fast for my family to find out[00:03:40]
Now I try to stop my music running into nosedives[00:03:43]
Can't resort to arrogance with white lies[00:03:45]
This city won't erase me[00:03:47]
But I can't help to see how this dark city changed me[00:03:49]
It's all the same scene music is my life[00:03:52]
But I try to fight whatever I need to hide from[00:03:54]
North[00:03:57]
South[00:03:57]
East[00:03:57]
West[00:03:57]
London's my home now knees weak but we never slow down[00:03:58]
Now I start to do my music properly[00:04:01]
And stay away from the negitave s**t that will follow me[00:04:03]
London calls me a stranger[00:04:06]
This is now my home home[00:04:15]
Oh woah[00:04:23]
Burning on the back street[00:04:26]
Oh woah[00:04:28]
Stuck here sitting in the back seat[00:04:30]
Oh woah[00:04:32]
And I'm blazing on the street[00:04:34]
What I do isn't up to you[00:04:37]
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two[00:04:39]
Oh woah[00:04:41]
Burning on the back street[00:04:44]
Oh woah[00:04:46]
Stuck here sitting in the back seat[00:04:48]
Oh woah[00:04:50]
And I'm blazing on the street[00:04:52]
What I do isn't up to you[00:04:55]
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two[00:04:57]
