Take Back The City
Snow Patrol
Letra

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

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

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

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

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 till 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

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

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 till 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
