Rufus Wainwright - Going To A Town

I'm going to a town
that has already been burnt down
I'm going to a place
that has already been disgraced
I'm gonna see some folks
who have already been let down
I'm so tired of America
I'm gonna make it up
for all of The Sunday Times
I'm gonna make it up
for all of the nursery rhymes
They never really seem
to want to tell the truth
I'm so tired of you America
Making my own way home
ain't gonna be alone
I've got a life to lead America
I've got a life to lead
Tell me do you really think you
go to hell for having loved
Tell me enough
of thinking everything
that youve done is good
I really need to know after soaking
the body of Jesus Christ in blood
I'm so tired of America
I really need to know
I may just never see
you again or might as well
You took advantage
of a world that loved you well
I'm going to a town
that has already been burnt down
I'm so tired of you America
Making my own way home
ain't gonna be alone
I've got a life to lead America
I've got a life to lead
I got a soul to feed
I got a dream to heed
And that's all I need
Making my own way home
ain't gonna be alone
I'm going to a town
