Bees, birds, butterflies, can't even stop to see
Can't appreciate the beauty they don't know exists
Squirrels, rabbits, dragonflies, all just passing by
Crows and pigeons in the city, never saying hi
Can you hear me now
Can you feel my heart
Lost in this concrete maze
Where do I start
Oh, the city's so cold, any time of year
It's not the weather, but the people here
Always in a hurry, as if I'm just a fly
They'd eagerly swat, just to get by
Just trying to make my way in this concrete sky
No one knows my mind keeps reminding to me
That I've no one to talk to, no one who cares
Tried a night stroll, hoping night walkers would share
Can you hear me now
Can you feel my heart
Lost in this concrete maze
Where do I start
One conversation, cured all my despair
A boy gave me a needle full of fentanyl
Told me sit somewhere quiet, let it do the rest
He said the whole city would know who I was then
Oh, the city's so cold, any time of year
It's not the weather, but the people here
Always in a hurry, as if I'm just a fly
They'd eagerly swat, just to get by
Feeling very low, I took his advice
Sat on a bench, put the needle in, felt the knife
But the boy was right, people rushed over to me
Asking was I okay, what could they do to help
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW
Can you hear me now
Can you feel my heart
Lost in this concrete maze
Where do I start
Oh, the city's so cold, any time of year
But now what do I care, it's too late now
I'm just a ghost passing by
Oh, I'm just a ghost passing by
Bees, birds, butterflies, can't even stop to see
Squirrels, rabbits, dragonflies, all just passing by
Crows and pigeons in the city, never saying hi
Oh, the city's so cold, any time of year
