[00:03.470] This city never sleeps
[00:07.360] I hear the people walk by when it's late
[00:11.610] Sirens bleed through my windowsill
[00:14.440] I can't close my eyes
[00:16.340] Don't control what I'm into
[00:21.880] This tower is alive
[00:25.950] The lights that blind keep me awake
[00:29.830] With my hood up and lace untied
[00:32.860] Sleep fills my mind
[00:34.610] London calls me a stranger
[00:41.010] Don't control what I'm into
[00:44.670] A traveller
[00:49.960] This is now my home, my home
[00:58.490]
[00:58.490]
[01:01.480] I'm burning on the back street
[01:04.910] Stuck here sitting in the backseat
[01:09.490] And I'm blazing on the street
[01:12.050] What I do isn't up to you
[01:14.050] And if the city never sleeps
[01:15.810] Then that makes two
[01:17.640] The pavement is my friend
[01:21.930] It will take me where I need to go
[01:25.970] I find it trips me up
[01:28.040] And puts me down
[01:30.660] This is not what I'm used to
[01:36.240] The shop across the road
[01:40.280] Fulfills my needs and gives me company
[01:43.450] When I need it
[01:44.470] Voices speak through my walls
[01:46.810] I don't think I'm gonna make it
[01:48.900] Past tomorrow
[01:56.010] London calls me a stranger
[02:00.430] A traveller
[02:05.700] This is not my home, my home
[02:16.560] I'm burning on the back street
[02:20.240] Stuck here sitting in the backseat
[02:24.870] And I'm blazing on the street
[02:27.400] What I do isn't up to you
[02:29.410] Cause the city never sleeps
[02:31.200] Then that makes two
[02:32.930] And my lungs hurt
[02:35.220] And my ears bled
[02:37.590] With the sound of the city life
[02:39.450] Echoed in my head
[02:42.110] Do I need this to keep me alive?
[02:45.930] The traffic stops and starts
[02:48.550] But I need to move along
[03:17.270]
[03:30.290] London calls me a stranger
[03:40.580] This is not my home now, my home
[03:51.960] I'm burning on the back street
[03:55.860] Stuck here sitting in the backseat
[04:00.990] And I'm blazing on the street
[04:03.240] What I do isn't up to you
[04:05.850] Cause the city never sleeps
[04:07.240] Then that makes two
[04:08.130]
[04:10.680] I'm burning on the back street
[04:14.380] Stuck here sitting in the backseat
[04:18.890] And I'm blazing on the street
[04:21.300] What I do isn't up to you
[04:23.550] Cause the city never sleeps
[04:25.050] Then that makes two
[06:18.850]
