Say "how you doin'?"
But you don't really ask
See the smile on my face
Don't see I'm wearing a mask
So I'll be on my way
To the tunnels underground
I plug in, I check out, and let life carry me uptown
Another restless face
Another hardened heart
We stand so close, but we're so far apart
Blinding lights
Buildings that kiss the sky
All blur as I pass by
Racing down the track
Don't ask, 'cause I won't tell
I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself
Racing down the track
Feeling breathless
When I walk into the room
I bare my soul then it's over
And swear I'll make it someday soon
'Til then I'm on my way
To the tunnels underground
Feel like I don't even matter, with the rest of the cattle on their way uptown
Another chance I missed
Another day gone by
Wondering how long I can hang on for the ride
Blinding lights
Buildings that kiss the sky
All blur as I pass by
Racing down the track
Don't ask, 'cause I won't tell
I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself
Racing down the track
Trapped on a carousel of fiber glass and steel
Try to convince myself my worries aren't real
Survive my daily hell and hope tomorrow will heal the ache
Of when you start to see
It's hard to live a dream
In the city that never sleeps
Blinding lights
Buildings that kiss the sky
All blur as I pass by
Racing down the track
Don't ask, 'cause I won't tell
I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself
Racing down the track
Blinding lights
Buildings that kiss the sky
All blur as I pass by
Racing down the track
Don't ask, 'cause I won't tell
I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself
Racing down the track
