Take back the city for yourself tonight Or I'll take back the city for me Take back the city for yourself tonight Whoa God knows you put your life in two a times And it's both cradled you and crushed But now it's time to make your own demands Whoa All these years later and it's killing me Your broken records and words Ten thousand craters where it all should be Whoa No need to put your words into my mouth Don't need convincing at all I love this place enough to have no doubt Whoa It's a mess It's a start It's a flawed work of art Your city, your call Every crack, every wall Pick a side, pick a fight Get your epitaph right You can sing ‘til you drop Cause the fun just never stops I love this city tonight I love this city always It bears it's teeth like a light And spits me out after days But we're all gluttons for it We know what's wrong and it's right For every time it's been hit Take back the city tonight Tell me you never wanted more from this And I will stop talking now One perfect partner, one eternal kiss Whoa Take back the city for yourself tonight Or I'll take back the city for me Take back the city for yourself tonight Whoa It's a mess It's a start It's a flawed work of art Your city, your call Every crack, every wall Pick a side, pick a fight Get your epitaph right You can sing ‘til you drop Cause the fun just never stops I love this city tonight I love this city always It bears it's teeth like a light And spits me out after days But we're all gluttons for it We know what's wrong and it's right For every time it's been hit Take back the city tonight I love this city tonight I love this city always It bears it's teeth like a light And spits me out after days But we're all gluttons for it We know what's wrong and it's right For every time it's been hit Take back the city tonight I love this city tonight I love this city always I love this city tonight I love this city always
