[Future Islands - City's Face lyrics]

All those years just a shadow
Of a ghost of a memory - at most

And how you strayed  - an arrow where you go
Where you been? Where you came

This city I'm sick and tired and wild
The city that I came to love i'm leaving
Filled with paranoia inside
Trust left with the loss of my pride
I say, "so long"

It's so strange
How a person can change a city's face
A time and place who we know and believe

I believed, for too long
What you did to me, wasn't wrong
I grew to hate you and this place too

This city I'm sick and tired
Am I - the one that I forgot to love?
I'm losing

Filled with paranoia inside
Trust left with the loss of my pride
I say, "so long"

It's so strange
How a person can change a city's face
A person can change
A person can change a city's face

And the strangers I came to know
They're all strange now
All the strangers I came to know
They're all strange now strange now
Strange now it's strange
