Murder City

(album: 21st Century Breakdown - 2009)

Desperate but not hopeless
I feel so useless in the murder city
Desperate but not helpless
The clock strikes midnight in the murder city

I'm wide awake after the riot
This demonstration of our anguish
This empty laughter has no reason
Like a bottle of your favourite poison
We are the last call and we're so pathetic

Desperate but not hopeless
I feel so useless in the murder city
Desperate but not helpless
The clock strikes midnight in the murder city

Christian's crying in the bathroom
And I just want to bum a cigarette
We've come so far,we've been so wasted
It's written all over our faces
We are the last call and we're so pathetic

Desperate but not hopeless
I feel so useless in the murder city
Desperate but not helpless
The clock strikes midnight in the murder city

Desperate
I feel so
Desperate
The clock strikes midnight in the murder city
