Thunderhead - Life In The City Lyrics

I picked up my head

I hang it out the window

Listen to my world

Seems so far away



Feelin' isolation

I'm the one who feels the pain

Send me a card

Or drop a line



Down in the streets, I can't believe

These rapes and murders I got to see

I try to hide it

Hide it from my mind

Why am I tryin' to be so blind



So tell me

How can you beat life in the city

Maybe tomorrow it will hit me

The world will always

Be with sorrow

I got to believe

There's a better way



I let time pass

Right trough my hands

Why can't I just stand

And be a man

This pain and heartache

It bites trough my bones

And I know I'm not

The only one alone
