The District Sleeps Alone Tonight

[Verse 1: Lonnie & Thomas]
Smeared black ink, your palms are sweaty
I'm barely listening to last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt, wondering what's buried underneath
Where I am, where I am

[Verse 2]
I'll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adhering to my chest
Tells your new friends
I am a visitor here, I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is

[Chorus 1: Lonnie & (Thomas)]
(Where I am)
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I’m just visiting
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

[Bridge: Lonnie]
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
Alone

[Chorus 2: Lonnie & (Thomas)]
(Where I am)
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I’m just visiting
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
(Where I am)
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

[Outro: Thomas]
Where I am, where I am
