Crooked Fingers - Went to the City lyrics

Went to the city for the d** and dancing She lights up pretty from so far away come closer You come and go alone you don't stand a chance It wants too much to see you crash and crumble To let you die out on the road Come stumbling homeward We all know you and how you're not ever coming back I keep moving but I'm getting nowhere The neighborhoods we used to roam have all been stolen She was my homegirl but I feel no connection to her now We take a little from the devil's coffer They get you hooked then let you go and crossing over You never know how far unless you take the chance Wasting my time inside snake oil shelter It's much too much to take the whole thing on your shoulders To carry everyone caught believing in you down I keep on going but I'm getting nowhere Watching the people on the road out on their own cold You come and go alone you don't stand a chance
