You Ruined This City

I wish I could drive across the country In a car I could rely on overnight I wish I could be there by the morning Drinking coffee with sunrise in my sight The truth is I was written by a man who didn't know just what he wanted And even less on where to go from here I wish I could tell you how my mind thinks Or that it gets to these dark places to spite my fear Listen close, I'll tell you what I know The truth is i don't know where I can go, but You ruined this city You ruined all the trees You ruined this city for me You ruined this city You ruined the breeze You ruined this city for me Every single morning I think about the toll That it would take to move this week Every day I think about my friends And wonder if there's memories of me they'd keep The truth is I was written by a man who didn't know what he believed And even less on what it means Every night I lay in bed and pray to whoever wants to hear me That today the day will be You ruined this city You ruined all the trees You ruined this city for me You ruined this city You ruined the breeze You ruined this city for me You ruined this city You ruined all the street lights You ruined this city for me You ruined this city You ruined all the sidewalks You ruined this city for me
