The City - Ed Sheeran

[00:00.0]The City (Live at Sticky Studios|Loose Change EP) - Ed Sheeran (艾德·希兰)
[00:44.83]The city never sleeps
[00:48.52]I hear the people walk by when it's late
[00:52.73]Sirens beat through my window sill
[00:55.5]I can't close my eyes
[00:57.26]Don't control what I'm into
[01:02.75]This town is alive
[01:07.0]With lights that blind keep me awake
[01:11.0]With my hood up and lace untied
[01:13.86]The street fills my mind
[01:15.74]Don't control what I'm into
[01:21.03]London calls me a stranger
[01:25.36]A traveller ohoohohh
[01:30.12]This is now my home my home
[01:38.32]Oh woah
[01:40.979996]Burning on the back street
[01:42.94]Oh woah
[01:44.79]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[01:47.32]Oh woah
[01:49.3]And I'm blazing on the street
[01:51.83]What I do isn't upto you
[01:53.8]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[01:57.259995]The pavement is my friend
[02:01.54]It'll take me where I need to go
[02:05.67]If I find it trips me up
[02:08.58]And puts me down
[02:10.49]This is not what I'm used to
[02:15.6]The shop across the road
[02:19.81]It fills my needs and keeps me company
[02:22.26]When I need it
[02:23.74]Voices beat through my walls
[02:26.28]I don't think I'm gonna make it
[02:28.44]Past to-mor-roow
[02:33.70999]London calls me a stranger
[02:38.02]A traveller ohoohohh
[02:42.87]This is now my home my home
[02:50.97]Oh woah
[02:53.75]Burning on the back street
[02:55.53]Oh woah
[02:57.44]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[03:00.0]Oh woah
[03:02.07]And I'm blazing on the street
[03:04.54]What I do isn't upto you
[03:06.48]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[03:09.88]And my lungs hurt
[03:12.04]And my ears bled
[03:14.56]With the sounds of the city life
[03:16.29001]Echoed in my head
[03:18.92]Do I need this
[03:20.84]To keep me alive
[03:22.68]The traffic stops and starts but I
[03:25.03]Need to move along
[03:29.77]I'm from a city where the rain won't cease
[03:31.81]Pollution in the air matches that on the street
[03:34.0]The black smoke gets your head in a muddle like
[03:36.33]Walking into elephants syringes in the puddle like
[03:38.84]I was a country boy when I moved out
[03:40.8]Grew up to fast for my family to find out
[03:43.07]Now I try to stop my music running into nosedives
[03:45.17]Can't resort to arrogance with white lies
[03:47.77]This city won't erase me
[03:49.70999]But I can't help to see how this dark city changed me
[03:52.37]It's all the same scene music is my life
[03:54.07]But I try to fight whatever I need to hide from
[03:57.09]North
[03:57.28]South
[03:57.53]East
[03:57.73]West
[03:58.17]London's my home now knees weak but we never slow down
[04:01.33]Now I start to do my music properly
[04:03.43]And stay away from the negitave s**t that will follow me
[04:06.5]London calls me a stranger
[04:15.4]This is now my home home
[04:23.47]Oh woah
[04:26.34]Burning on the back street
[04:28.11]Oh woah
[04:30.01]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[04:32.54]Oh woah
[04:34.57]And I'm blazing on the street
[04:37.0]What I do isn't up to you
[04:39.18]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[04:41.91]Oh woah
[04:44.37]Burning on the back street
[04:46.29]Oh woah
[04:48.25]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[04:50.66]Oh woah
[04:52.77]And I'm blazing on the street
[04:55.19]What I do isn't up to you
[04:57.22]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
