Gloomy City

So many sirens
Sounds of the city
Is this the future
We were promised back then
Is it all you dreamed of
All you thought that it would be
Or is this just an age of ego
An age of personality

Gloomy cities
Gloomy towns
More’s the pity
Don’t let life get you down

Goodbye to memories
Goodbye to hope
Goodbye to everything
I thought I had to know

Oh, city dweller
Oh, lost and lonely fella
Pretty vacant
Searching for an empty space

Oh, city dweller
Oh, lost and lonely fella
Always searching
With a sad look upon his face

So many sirens
In a city of sin
Somewhere to get lost
Until you don’t know where to begin

So much violence
Violence on the streets
So much heartache
In a city whose heart, slowly beats

I wonder who is walking
I wonder who is looking
I wonder who is searching
Searching or a sign

I wonder who is dreaming
I wonder who is living
I wonder who is dying
‘Cos soon will come the time

Gloomy cities
Gloomy towns
More’s the pity
Don’t let life get you down

Goodbye to memories
Goodbye to hope
Goodbye to everything
I thought I had to know

Oh, city dweller
Oh, lost and lonely fella
Pretty vacant
Seeking an empty space

Oh, city dweller
Oh, lost and lonely fella
Always searching
With a sad look upon his face
