Luyện nghe bài hát Mortal City

She never have rented this apartment in the Mortal City
The cold comes though crack she puts her hand up to
The radiator's so she has to use electric 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 dinner sometime, was tonight

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

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

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

She said, "What of people make a city 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 people are dying and cares
We had all this technology, our dreams were bold and
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 been so lonely here, so lonely, there's no one I can talk to
And I don't know your brother"

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

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

They ate in silence while she this over
They sat together in a dark room in the City
Shifting in their blankets so they get spaghetti on them

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

And one thousand 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
