You told me on your birthday

all the things that

this place had done to you.

And in the streets you walk,

you hide your face cause

they don't believe it's true.

They say it doesn't happen that often

but it's happening right now



CHORUS:

I'm writing you this

letter to let you know

I'm not all right

and in this city

the streets are paved with hate

so you can cry yourself to sleep tonight,

and say

no there aren't enough love songs in the sky



You're counting down the days till you can say

bye bye city bye-bye

You're walking down on Union,

you see the roads

and know they're a part of you.

They say it doesnt happen that often

But it's happening right now



CHORUS:

I'm writing you a second time

to let you know

Nothing here has changed

The streets: still paved with hate

So you can cry yourself to sleep tonight



Will you look back on this night

As the day that ruined your life.

Will you look back on these city streets and say,
