Luyện nghe bài hát Mortal City

She never should have this apartment in the Mortal City
The cold comes every crack she puts her hand up to
The radiator's broken so she has to use heat

And tonight was the date with the brother
Of the guy she worked to
He lived a streets away, he listened, he had things to say
She asked him up for sometime, sometime was tonight

The gave updates on the ice storm while she made the dinner
They said from all the talk you shouldn't drive or even walk and just in
We're asking everyone to turn off power, they need it at the hospital

She ran around pulling plugs, then she him up
Maybe now shouldn't meet, he said that he would brave the streets
She met him at the with a blanket and a candle
Saying, "I it on the radio, I had to turn my power off"

He said, "You're not the only one, the were dark tonight
It was another century
With dim and candles lighting up the icy trees
And the and a covered moon"

She said, "What kind of people make a where you can't see the sky
And you can't feel the
I tell you something, I have this feeling that this dying"
He said, "It's not dying, the people who are dying"

She said, "Yes yes, I think the are dying and nobody cares
We had all this technology, our dreams were and vague
And one city got bad planners, one city got the plague"

He asked, "Why did you here?" She said, "For the job, for the job
And I've been so lonely here, so lonely, no one I can talk to
And I don't even know brother"

He smiled and said, "Sometimes at I walk out by the river
The one big town, the water turns it upside down
People found this city because love other people
They want their secretaries, want their power lunches"

"And think about tonight, I heard the newscast you did
I everything, I looked out the window and I think the city heard
I watched as one by one the lights off
So could give their power to the hospital"

They ate in silence she thought this over
They sat together in a dark in the Mortal City
in their blankets so they wouldn't get spaghetti on them

Then came the moment after dinner, what to do
The ice was falling, the streets were still dangerous
The cabs were not and this neighborhood was not the greatest

They both looked at the space where a couch would've
She felt her stomach sink, she felt she could hardly think

She said, "I never should have rented this in the Mortal City
The cold through every crack I put my hand up to
The doesn't work, I have to use electric heat"

That settled it, they would sleep in her bed, it was a matter of survival
She out teeshirts, sweatshirts, sweatpants, socks, hats
If there was any thought of what would happen in that bed tonight

was no question now, they could barely move
They were wrapped up like waiting for another season

They lay in bed, they listened to the ice
He said, "My brother's not a bad guy, just quiet
I wished you this city", she said, "Maybe I do"

"I think I have a special of hearing tonight
I hear the upstairs, I hear my heart beating
I hear one hearts beating at the hospital"

And one hearts by their bedsides waiting
Saying that's my love in the white
We are not lost in the Mortal
We are not lost in the Mortal
