Snow Patrol

Take Back The City

Take back the city for yourself tonight

Or I'll take back the city for me

Take back the city for yourself tonight

Whoa

God knows you put your life in two a times

And it's both cradled you and crushed

But now it's time to make your own demands

Whoa

All these years later and it's killing me

Your broken records and words

Ten thousand craters where it all should be

Whoa

No need to put your words into my mouth

Don't need convincing at all

I love this place enough to have no doubt

Whoa

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

Get your epitaph right

You can sing ‘til you drop

Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight

I love this city always

It bears it's teeth like a light

And spits me out after days

But we're all gluttons for it

We know what's wrong and it's right

For every time it's been hit

Take back the city tonight

Tell me you never wanted more from this

And I will stop talking now

One perfect partner, one eternal kiss

Whoa

Take back the city for yourself tonight

Or I'll take back the city for me

Take back the city for yourself tonight

Whoa

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

Get your epitaph right

You can sing ‘til you drop

Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight

I love this city always

It bears it's teeth like a light

And spits me out after days

But we're all gluttons for it

We know what's wrong and it's right

For every time it's been hit

Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight

I love this city always

It bears it's teeth like a light

And spits me out after days

But we're all gluttons for it

We know what's wrong and it's right

For every time it's been hit

Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight

I love this city always

I love this city tonight

I love this city always
