[00:03.84]“Where you from?” he asks
[00:10.99]“Oh no, that city I always pass”
[00:18.38]He told me he heard it’s so hard to last
[00:25.20]On a rising star, that seems to be sinking fast.
[00:45.58]The bad news travels here so fast
[00:52.46]While the tales of the good never will reach the mass
[00:59.57]But I live here among the broken glass
[01:07.51]It's not what you see, it's how you will make it last
[01:25.31]From the late light after all the day is gone
[01:29.10]When everybody leaves and the trouble comes along
[01:32.86]There’s not quite a welcome sign aglow
[01:36.47]It’s a rough town man, a rough town I know
[01:40.17]The sound bites of dying city noise
[01:43.75]Are a fraction of the action that no one here enjoys
[01:47.41]If you hold tight and you listen past the lows
[01:51.08]It’s a rough town now, it's my rough town I know
[02:03.68]“Hold your tongue, man” I say
[02:09.47]‘Cause it's easy to scoff and underestimate
[02:16.91]All the things you can’t relate to
[02:24.27]Is the fabric I keep my memories sewn to
[02:35.39]From the late light after all the day is gone
[02:39.21]When everybody leaves and the trouble comes along
[02:42.96]There’s not quite a welcome sign aglow
[02:46.60]It’s a rough town man, a rough town I know
[02:50.29]The sound bites of dying city noise
[02:53.96]Are a fraction of the action that no one here enjoys
[02:57.70]If you hold tight and you listen past the lows
[03:01.41]It’s a rough town now, it's my rough town I know
[03:06.78]
