Rufus Wainwright - Going to a Town lyrics

[Rufus Wainwright - Going to a Town lyrics]

I'm going to a town that
Has already been burnt down
I'm going to a place that
Has already been disgraced
I'm gonna see some folks who
Have already been let down
I'm so tired of America

I'm gonna make it up for
All of The Sunday Times
I'm gonna make it up for
All of the nursery rhymes
They never really seem to want
To tell the truth
I'm so tired of you, America

Making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I've got a life to lead, America
I've got a life to lead

Tell me, do you really think you go
To hell for having loved? Tell me
Enough of thinking everything that
You've done is good i really need to know
After soaking the body of
Jesus Christ in blood
I'm so tired of America

I really need to know
I may just never see you again
Or might as well
You took advantage of a world
That loved you well i'm going to a town that
Has already been burnt down
I'm so tired of you, America

Making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I've got a life to lead, America
I've got a life to lead i got a soul to feed
I got a dream to heed and that's all I need

Making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I'm going to a town
That has already been burnt down
