LYRICS
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
Where I am
Where I am
I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends I am a visitor here...
I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Where I am
Where I am
Where I am
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leaving

Same thing here while I was a college student in 2019

@russell_szabados Год назад

Not just college students. I was 27 when this came out and it spoke directly to the situation I was in. Dating a 22 year old woman who was so deep into that lifestyle that many people in their early 20's who didn't grow up in a city, then move to a big city find themselves in...endless partying, careless monitoring of who she hung around with and allowed in our apt, drug & sex experimentation. I was so beyond that kind of living but was so into her. I broke it off and it broke my heart and then so did this song. It's a masterpiece. P.S. I saw her last year. She's married, completely normal and very happy and so am I with my wife. Thankfully.

@brett84c 2 года назад

Death Cab's Photo Album was the first indie artist CD I ever bought and I really didn't like it. Before that, I was pretty much exclusively into pop punk, but I remember playing GTA3 and having the CD on in the background on endless loop and after a week, I was addicted and it was the very start of my deep journey into indie music of all types. Benjamin Gibbard single handedly changed my entire musical tastes practically overnight.

@TheRoguesy2 Год назад

Yeah me too. They would blast them working at Urban Outfitters in NYC in 2005. At first I was like WTF is all this new style of music. And then it all got its hooks into me.

Being a teenager in the 2000’s and listening to this then was such a vibe as the music was just amazing with the right type of beat. Now in my mid 30’s and the lyrics make so much more sense. I’m finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving..

@omarmuhyar2005 Год назад

Remember listening to this on repeat with an old mp3 player in high school, just staring at the brick library walls - pondering my existence and if there's anyone out there for me. This song does a stellar job at personifying the existential loneliness you experience while coming of age. Still a banger and I'm 33 now.

I hadn't heard this song in nearly 20 yrs, and never heard, nor saw a live version of this song. A guy I worked with at a mall in Ohio introduced them to me when I was in my early 20s and my musical experience was never the same. Occasionally, this song and the songs 'such great heights' and 'we will become silhouettes' pop in my head. A recent Justin Beiber song had a similar sound to 'the district sleeps alone' and had me thinking about listening to it. And so...here I am. Thanks, Justin Beiber. Lol
