City Of Dreadful Night

Words by Simon Neil

Where’s my ladder gone? 
I’m not climbing 
Curse this paper shell 
It’s not helping 

Keep it, keep it, keep it 
I don’t want you to call me any more 
Cut it, cut it, cut it 
Don’t leave me danglin’ any more 

Look hard enough and you’ll find 
Your body’s just like mine 
Crippled in all the right places 
And scarred at all the right times 

Come one 
Come all 
Come on 
And let’s go 
All the way back to the start 

Fuck one 
Fuck it all 
Fuck on 
And I want 
Us to go back to the start 

With all these lies 
Can you taste it? 
In your exclusion zone 
I’m still naked 

With all the shit you chew 
I can’t call you any more 
I jump the steel for you 
Not in a wonder any more 

So when it comes out, you’ll find 
Your cruelty’s just like mine 
The city of dreadful night is 
Where I exist in this light 

Come one 
Come all 
Come on 
And let’s go 
All the way back to the start 

Fuck one 
Fuck it all 
Fuck on 
And I want 
Us to go back to the start 

Come one 
Come all 
Come on 
And let’s go 
All the way back to the start 

Fuck one 
Fuck it all 
Fuck on 
And I want 
Us to go back to the start
