And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.

Someone told me love will all save us.
But how can that be, look what love gave us.
A world full of killing, and blood-spilling
That world never came.

And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.

Now that the world isnt ending, its love that Im sending to you.
It isnt the love of a hero, and thats why I fear it wont do.

And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.

And they're watching us
(Watching Us)
As they all fly away.

[Chorus x 2]
Big City Life,
Me try fi get by,
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big City Life,
Here my heart have no base,
And right now Babylon de pon me case
[Chorus x 2]
Big City Life,
Me try fi get by,
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big City Life,
my heart have no base,
And right now Babylon de pon me case

People in a show,
All lined in a row
We just push on by,
Its funny,
How hard we try
Take a moment to relax
Before you do anything rash
Don’t you wanna know me?,
Be a friend of mine
I’ll share some wisdom with you
Don’t you ever get lonely,
From time to time
Don’t let the system get you down

[Chorus x 2]
Big City Life,
Me try fi get by,
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big City Life,
Here my heart have no base,
And right now Babylon de pon me case

[Repeat Chorus]
Soon our work is done,
All of us one by one
Still we live our lives,
As if all this stuff survives
Don’t you wanna know me?,
Be a friend of mine
I’ll share some wisdom with you
Don’t you ever get lonely,
From time to time
Don’t let the system get you down

[Bridge]
The Linguist across the seas and the oceans,
A permanent Itinerant is what I've chosen
I find myself in Big City prison,
arisen from the vision of man kind
Designed, to keep me discreetly neatly in the corner,
you’ll find me with the flora and the fauna and the hardship
Back a yard is where my heart is still
I find it hard to depart this Big City Life

[Chorus x 2]
Big City Life,
Me try fi get by,
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big City Life,
Here my heart have no base,
And right now Babylon de pon me case

Life for rent-Dido

I haven't really ever found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind
that your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't lean to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought
that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone
and live my life more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well how can I say I'm alive

If my life is for rent...
