Caligula’s Horse
The City Has No Empathy (Your Sentimental Lie)
[Verse 1]
Empty streets call
Siren's song
Drift down deeper
The city's heart is waiting for me
[Verse 2]
City, soulless
All empty syringe, hollow promise and careful disguise
Bright eyes briefly carry the hopeful
Ever the optimist
[Chorus]
So sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
You've got something to say
Sing your song like a sigh
[Verse 3]
My head in my hands
Try to ignore the sound turning to sand
Cold wind carries my own voice
A whisper begging for release (I am released)
[Chorus]
So sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
Got something to say
Sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
Something to—
[Outro]
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, yeah"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, yeah"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released" (I am released)
