The germs of you snuck in Through my skin They just came and came Not even caring about what It would do to me They made a city in me Every street light was the Light in your eyes And the national anthem Was your laugh Every billboard was your smile The stars were the little Freckles on your nose and cheeks One day they decided To take a swim In my bloodstream I was having the time of my life Because you said "Forever" But then I found out about All the other girls cities You broke my heart The city inside me did not Have a reason to be there I decided to let them go So I opened up my veins And all that came out Was you.

CITIES
The germs of you snuck in Through my skin They just came and came Not even caring about what It would do to me They made a city in me Every street light was the Light in your eyes And the national anthem Was your laugh Every billboard was your smile The stars were the little Freckles on your nose and cheeks One day they decided To take a swim In my bloodstream I was having the time of my life Because you said "Forever" But then I found out about All the other girls cities You broke my heart The city inside me did not Have a reason to be there I decided to let them go So I opened up my veins And all that came out Was you.
