about
Leave The City is the grittiest track on the Eat Magic EP. The drums and baseline head straight for the jugular as the song slowly unfolds into brighter synth sounds and lofty ideas about leaving the city behind - A favourite writing topic of Trevor’s.
lyrics
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the sea
We can trade all the buildings for mountains
We can trade all the people for trees
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the sea
Trade all the buildings for mountains
Trade all the people for trees
Rain will wash our bodies
Sun will warm our bones
Clouds will cover our secrets
The wind will carry us home
Now we don’t need the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
No we don’t need the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the sea
We can trade all the buildings for mountains
We can trade all the people for trees
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the sea
Trade all the buildings for mountains
Trade all the people for trees
Rain will wash our bodies
Sun will warm our bones
Clouds will cover our secrets
The wind will carry us home
Now we don’t need the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
No we don’t need the city
It’s the perfect day to leave the city
