"The City Has No Empathy (Your Sentimental Lie)" lyrics - CALIGULA'S HORSE

CALIGULA'S HORSE
"The City Has No Empathy (Your Sentimental Lie)"

Empty streets call
Siren's song
Drift down deeper
The city's heart is waiting for me

City, soulless
All empty syringe, hollow promise and careful disguise
Bright eyes briefly carry the hopeful
Ever the optimist

[Chorus:]
So sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
You've got something to say
Sing your song like a sigh

My head in my hands
Try to ignore the sound turning to sand
Cold wind carries my own voice
A whisper begging for release (I am released)

[Chorus:]
So sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
Got something to say
Sing your song like a sigh
Your sentimental lie, liar
Open your mouth and sing like you've got something
Something to-

[Outro:]
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, yeah"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released, yeah"
Fuck this city, I've been released
I spread out wide my arms
I breathe in deep and sing
"I am released" (I am released)
