The City
I move like a wounded animal whose cuts run fierce and deep
The pack look at me with abhorrence
Because they can't feast while I weep
My feet have given me to dreams that I could stay within for weeks
But every time I close my eyes there's someone different to meet
Forwards they push with nothing in close sight
Onwards no chance to rest or to decide
But you know it's best like this to keep your future bright
We were born in the city where the people never knew how to play
We were trapped in the city
Where all the peace in my heart all drained away
Will we get out of the city where we can find the calm someday
Cause we all live in the city
Where all our dreams and all they ones we truly care for lay
I remember numbers and figures that they need me to know
But enduring such a numb system
Really doesn't teach me to grow
My friends are suffocating under heavy layers of snow
The thing that keeps us on is that we know we're not alone
Forwards they push with nothing in close sight
Onwards no chance to rest or to decide
But you know it's best like this to keep your future bright
We were born in the city where all the people never knew how to play
And we were trapped in the city
Where all the peace in my heart all drained away
Will we get out of the city where we can find the calm someday
Cause we all live in the city
Where all our dreams and all they ones we truly care for lay
The pack look at me with abhorrence
Because they can't feast while I weep
My feet have given me to dreams that I could stay within for weeks
But every time I close my eyes there's someone different to meet
Forwards they push with nothing in close sight
Onwards no chance to rest or to decide
But you know it's best like this to keep your future bright
We were born in the city where the people never knew how to play
We were trapped in the city
Where all the peace in my heart all drained away
Will we get out of the city where we can find the calm someday
Cause we all live in the city
Where all our dreams and all they ones we truly care for lay
I remember numbers and figures that they need me to know
But enduring such a numb system
Really doesn't teach me to grow
My friends are suffocating under heavy layers of snow
The thing that keeps us on is that we know we're not alone
Forwards they push with nothing in close sight
Onwards no chance to rest or to decide
But you know it's best like this to keep your future bright
We were born in the city where all the people never knew how to play
And we were trapped in the city
Where all the peace in my heart all drained away
Will we get out of the city where we can find the calm someday
Cause we all live in the city
Where all our dreams and all they ones we truly care for lay
