The Postal Service - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (DJ Downfall Persistent Beat Mix) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty
And I'm barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
What's buried underneath

[Verse 2]
I'll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adhering to my chest
That tells your new friends
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is

[Interlude]
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am

[Chorus]
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I’m just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
(Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving)

[Bridge]
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
D.C. sleeps alone tonight

[Chorus]
(Where I am)
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I’m just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving

[Verse 3]
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
The one worth leaving
The one worth leaving

[Outro]
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
