Nightmare City Lyrics by Tom Kirby

The Revolution Is Over (You Can All Go Home Now)

2018

[Verse]
Waiting for light
Waiting for the moment where we see the sun
Stuck in the dark
Hiding in the corner fall until we’re done
Learn it by wrote
Pen to paper down the barrel of a gun
Twitch in your sleep
Wake up to the last one, it’s time to run
[Chorus]
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
[Verse 2]
Chemicals in
Fall through the doorway, just to snap and spin
Scalpel is out
Look to where your head is, and where it’s been
Fingers apart
Stitches heal the slashes, the cuts and pains
Eyelids away
Glue them from the pieces, melt the roaring flames
[Chorus]
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
[Bridge]
Feel so alone yet all the eyes are on you
It’s not that bad, they’ve had it much worse than you
Trapped in a room just to be trapped at a desk
Just as Keynes said
We’re all dead in the end
[Chorus]
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
Welcome to nightmare city
Where the grass ain’t greener for you, for you
Now you’re in nightmare city
And what we told you ain’t true, so true
