Seattle, so full of angry and bitter memories Failed love affairs, dreams and careers Seattle the Black Hole! We call it Stifling people’s hopes Raining on everyone’s parade I am happy for those who are happy here And I feel for those who are not Miscommunications fill the air Much like the *** smoke fills the small niches of building entryways The streets are flooded with STD’s and STI’s And all around me I see my friends dying Dying from drug addictions and failed marriages Dying from being accused by their own judgmental minds They are all dying; rotting from the inside Seattle, the most beautiful hypocritical city I know

The City I Know
Seattle, so full of angry and bitter memories Failed love affairs, dreams and careers Seattle the Black Hole! We call it Stifling people’s hopes Raining on everyone’s parade I am happy for those who are happy here And I feel for those who are not Miscommunications fill the air Much like the *** smoke fills the small niches of building entryways The streets are flooded with STD’s and STI’s And all around me I see my friends dying Dying from drug addictions and failed marriages Dying from being accused by their own judgmental minds They are all dying; rotting from the inside Seattle, the most beautiful hypocritical city I know
