Lyrics

City of Strangers

I can feel your body next to mine
As momentary life-lines cross in time
But you could not be more distant from me
You’re sucking in the air like it’s not free

Don’t look into my eyes
They look friendly
That’s just disguise

With no thank-yous
And no goodbyes
With no connection
There’re no ties

In this city of strangers I’m lost
In this city of strangers I’m lost
In this swirling pool of vacant stares and vain fools
I’m lost

Capitalist run society
Tells us everything that we should be
So lemming like we pamper to its whim
Cast adrift most of us will not swim

But don’t ask why
We are here
Life comes then disappears

We are all just numbers
Scapegoats for
Their blunders

In this city of strangers I’m lost
In this city of strangers I’m lost
In this swirling pool of vacant stares and vain fools
I’m lost
