Cold in the City

I WANT MY LIFE BACK!

I was in two minds thinking about past times
Got a strange kinda feeling inside
Running all around this crazy town
Just trying to get out of my mind
Sirens wailing, juke-joints playin'
Trying to make out what exactly they're sayin'
To me, for me
Feels like this day is an eternity

Trying to keep a secret when you know you wanna speak it to
The first sympathetic ear you meet
Doing backflips, my head to my fingertips
All I wanna do is sleep
Trying to persevere but the pain is so severe
I feel the pressure building up inside
Rain beating down the sidewalk
Shadows taking over night

Its cold in the city tonight
Its lonely in the city tonight

Trouble on the corner when you step outside
Murder in the alleys, escalating crime
Running out of time, running out of life
Gotta pick up speed or I only know that I will...
Dye is cast, fate is sealed
Crazy fucking world brought to my knees
Reelin' through the chill, I even thought of killing
Somebody come and rescue me

Its cold in the city tonight
Its lonely in the city tonight

Its cold
Its cold
I WANT MY LIFE BACK!
Its cold

I was in two minds thinking about past times
Got a strange kinda feeling inside
