I'm surrounded by the concrete walls I'm beginning to feel I'm only two feet tall This city's too big big and the people are cold In the city, I feel so small I try to reach out to the strangers around They turn away. not even hearing my sound Though I'm in a crowd, I'm always walking alone In the city, I'm all alone In the city, I'm all alone I won't make it, no I'll never last In this world of cold steel and glass Life's a race that's being run too fast In the city, I'll never last I can get no peace, can't get no love Can't get no air, I'm living in a shroud I tell you this place is like a burial ground In the city, I feel so down I'm really worn out and I'm ready to fall The pressure is rising, can't take it no more I wanna get out, just wanna go home In the city, I wanna go home In the city, I wanna 10 home I won't make it. no I'll never last In this world of cold steel and glass Love is dyin' but they don't seem to see In the city, I'm all alone I won't make it. no I'll never last In this world of cold steel and glass Love is dyin' but they don't seem to see In the city, I'm all alone
