Snow Patrol – Take Back The City Lyric

Take back the city for yourself tonight
I'll take back the city for me
Take back the city for yourself tonight
Whoao

God knows you've put your life into it's hands
And it's both cradled you and crushed
But now it's time to make your own demands
Whoao

All these years later and it's killing me
Your broken records and words
Ten thousand craters where it all should be
Whoao

No need to put your words into my mouth
Don't need convincing at all
I love this place enough to have no doubt
Whoao

It's a mess, it's a start, it's a flawed work of art
Your city, your call, every crack, every wall
Pick a side, pick a fight, but get your epitaph right
Or you can sing 'til you drop, 'cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bares its teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we're all gluttons for it
We know it's wrong and it's right
For every time it's been hit
Take back the city tonight

Tell me you never wanted more than this
And I will stop talking now
One perfect partner, one eternal kiss
Whoao

Take back the city for yourself tonight
I'll take back the city for me
Take back the city for yourself tonight
Whoao

It's a mess, it's a start, it's a flawed work of art
Your city, your call, every crack, every wall
Pick a side, pick a fight, but get your epitaph right
Or you can sing 'til you drop, 'cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bares its teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we're all gluttons for it
We know it's wrong and it's right
For every time it's been hit
Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bares its teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we're all gluttons for it
We know it's wrong and it's right
For every time it's been hit
Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
