Lyrics:

[Verse 1: Thomas Calder]
Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty
And I'm barely listening
To last demands
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
What's buried underneath

[Bridge: Betty Yeowart]
Where I am

[Verse 2: Thomas Calder]
Where I am
A vinyl sticker with big block letters adhering to my chest
Tells your new friends
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent
Only thing keeping me dry is...

[Chorus: Thomas Calder]
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I'm just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

[Interlude: Thomas Calder (Betty Yeowart)]
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
(Alone, alone, alone, alone...
Alone, alone, alone, alone...)

[Outro: Thomas Calder (Betty Yeowart)]
(Where I am)
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
(Where I am)
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
(Where I am)
Why I was the one worth leaving
