This remix keeps true to its word, as DJ Downfall’s six minute long reworking of “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight” has a very persistent, high-tempo beat.
It’s included as one of the five remixes on Give Up’s tenth anniversary re-release. Apart from its new beat, it includes some slight lyric cha...
[Verse 1]
Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty
And I'm barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
What's buried underneath
[Verse 2]
I'll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is
[Interlude]
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
[Chorus]
You seem so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key
Explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
(Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving)
[Bridge]
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
(D.C. sleeps alone tonight)
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
[Chorus]
(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
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
The district sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving
Into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
The one worth leaving
The one worth leaving
[Outro]
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
