City Out Of Control

Inside the canyons of glass and towering steel
The shadows and the footsteps that never stop to feel
The lights have changed from red to green and yes, I've changed my mind
I pick up the phone and tell someone, "Just get off my line"

Up on the corner, newsboy's daily blues
Of love and life and accidents and passing strangers' views
The valet holds no heroes, "The dealer holds" he said
Sun goes down, the lights come up, the wheel turns in your head

You make connections, you win elections
That ain't gonna be enough

'Cause the city is out of control
Yeah, the city is out of control
It's the city, can't you hear it?
Crying, out of control

Running out of time, you know it
Put it on the line, it's loaded
Fear erodes, hate explodes
Can't hold back now, take your passion to the street

Inside the canyons of glass and towering steel
The shadows and the footsteps that never stop to feel
Lights have changed from red to green and yes, I changed my mind
I pick up the phone and tell someone, "Just get off my line"

Up on the corner, newsboy's daily blues
Of love and life and accidents and passing strangers' views
The valet holds no heroes, "The dealer holds" he said
Sun goes down, the lights come up, the wheel turns in your head

You make connections, you win elections
That ain't gonna be enough

'Cause the city is out of control
Yeah, the city is out of control
It's the city
Crying out of control
Yes, the city, can't you hear it?
Crying out of control

City
Out of control
City
Out of control
The city
