You find yourself living in the broken city
The lights are blinding us we can't see what's comming
They're crawling slowly through the concrete of the buildings
Their faces are reflexes in the great walls of glass
Living in the broken city
Feeling out of place in my town
No matter where you run it will put you down

You say you love her and you need her forever
The truth can be seen dancing around your eyes
But as you get your feet out in the streets
Desire comes hidden with the gray of the sky
Living in the broken city
Feeling out of place in my town
No matter where you run it will put you down

And then you see yourself against the broken city
The clock keeps ticking and the hours rushing by
And as you think that you're now growing older
But you never get older than the broken city
Living in the broken city
Feeling out of place in my town
No matter where you run it will put you down
No matter what you do it will put you down
