Arno Carstens - Bad City lyrics

I built the city on a field of dreams I awoke with my overdose In a tube to a downtown bar the walls spoke to me I took lunch for the rest of the day You make a double, cause I feel that way And I just had it, the city was bad back then The mayor with his golden lies With his empire of flies He said it, the city was bad They changed the name from the city of hell To something that sounded like hotel It didn't work, the city of golden linings The city was bad back then And how bizarre and how bizarre with his crooked guitar And the ex-policeman called 'Coroner Eyes' Singing sad tunes I'm gonna fly through the open sky Where red lights and a firefighter cries To put a smile on an orphan's face And I'm waiting for my kingdom come I'm gonna burn this hell down Oh let it go, the city of silver linings We're going to fly through the open sky Where love will reign upon our lives And you know it is in the city of silver linings Well don't hold back Just let it go and bring it all back To the new school in the city of silver linings Don't hold back just let it go And bring it all back my baby In the city of silver linings The city of golden linings How bizarre and how bizarre Singing sad tunes I'm going to fly through these open skies Where love will reign upon our lies And we're all in the city of golden linings Where love is just a stone throw I am back but I won't go I lost love too Bit I still stay And I confess oh I confess Some kind of alliance
