Luyện nghe bài hát Mortal City

She never should have rented 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 couple away, he listened, he had things to say
She asked him up for sometime, sometime was tonight

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

She ran around plugs, then she called him up
Maybe now they shouldn't meet, he 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 were dark tonight
It was another century
dim lamps and candles lighting up the icy trees
And the and a covered moon"

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

She said, "Yes yes, I think the people are dying and cares
We had all this technology, our were bold 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 so lonely here, so lonely, there's no one I can talk to
And I don't even your brother"

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

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

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

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

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

She said, "I should have rented this apartment in the Mortal City
The comes through every crack I put my hand up to
The doesn't work, I have to use electric heat"

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

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

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

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

And one thousand hearts by their bedsides
Saying that's my in the white gown
We are not in the Mortal City
We are not lost in the Mortal
