Spread Eagle - Broken City lyrics

rate me

Have mercy on this broken city home

I'm doin' time—time in this crazy place

I've been here so long I gotta get away

I got rats in the kitchen rippin' up the trash

Cold wind blowin' down my back straight through shattered glass

Strangers in the hallways turn your face to stone

People call this living hell I call this Broken City home

My sweet home Broken City livin' my sweet home

There's a hole in my pocket where my money used to be

Landlord knockin' at my door I'm back out on the street

Crime and aggravation don't go out alone

People call this living hell I call this Broken City home

My sweet home Broken City livin' my sweet home

My sweet home Broken City livin' my sweet home

It feels like I'm doin' time

Street lights shinin' through my window

The only light I've ever known in my Broken City home

My sweet home Broken City livin’ my sweet home

My sweet home Broken City livin' my sweet home
