lyrics

Lyrics:

London is calling, calling
Your name
And out of the fog it plays a game
Some days I lose
The city I’m from
Its just a town compared to this place

London is calling, calling
Your name
Whispers through shadows
And through its fame
And anonymity hides people and souls as a transient population flows onto the west side of town
And you just survive, sometimes
You barely survive

London can’t hear me cry as I’m talking back
Swallowed by the sky
My voice starts to crack
I lost my place and found it here
I left my home and made it here
Dug up my life and sewed the seeds to make a living here
And I just survive, sometimes
I barely survive

Its hard to wake up when it’s a cold day
There’s someone waiting to take my place
Steal my air supply in the elevator and subways
No privacy but alone being watched all day

And I just survive, sometimes
I barely survive…..
