Henry Rollins During A City Lyrics

During A City Lyrics

I try not to let it get above me
Don`t make me
Don`t hurt me
Don`t push me
Don`t confront me

I try to separate real from unreal
Don`t make me have to open my eyes
Don`t make me have to feel
Crime lights burning like a halo
Sidewalk under my feet
Passing trains below
I keep walking with nothing in my head
Where am I going?

Some nights I walk mile after mile after mile
I need you I need you I want to smile at your smile
Are you out there somewhere looking,
waiting for me?
I`m falling fast falling, falling broken
Reach out and catch me

The city`s in my blood like a curse
And the people and the noise make it worse
I can`t tell you why there`s no place I`d rather be
Where am I going?
Dirty grey city dropping rain down in my dreams
No one knows me
So when you see me
Just walk on by
I`m caving in and I don`t know why
There`s got to be more than this but I just can`t find it

I`m wandering in a city
Unknown to myself
A stranger to everyone I meet
I`m wasted on insomnia
Paranoid to the hilt
Where am I going?
