In the night, I wander
Through towering buildings and concrete
Lost in a mass that never ceases
Endless lines leading nowhere
I search for something without knowing
My mind drained of all substance
Suffocating in this cityscape
The noise and the chaos, they won't escape
I'm so drained, I can hardly breathe
Can't seem to think or create
The page stays blank, year after year
Fighting against this empty void
That seems to swallow me whole
Searching for an escape in vain
Suffocating in this cityscape
The noise and the chaos, they won't escape
I'm so drained, I can hardly breathe
The city's a beast that never sleeps
Devouring souls with its endless needs
A mechanical heart that beats too fast
Leaving nothing but emptiness to last
Lost in this city's maze of steel
My mind and body begin to reel
The constant noise and blinding lights
Leave me feeling numb, a ghost in sight
The city never slows its pace
No time to rest or catch a break
Leaving me feeling so small
In this world that never stops at all
The city never slows its pace
No time to rest or catch a break
Leaving me feeling so small
In this world that never stops at all
Suffocating in this cityscape
The noise and the chaos, they won't escape
I'm so drained, I can hardly breathe
Suffocating in this city's grasp,
The noise and the chaos, they never lapse
But I'll keep on fighting,
I'll find my breath, I'll find my breath
Until I break free from this urban death.
