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 likes burning like a heylow  sidewalk under me feet  passing trees below  I keep walking, with nothing in my head  where am I going?, where am I going?, where am I going?, 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? waiting? looking for me?  I am falling fast, falling, falling broken  reach out and catch me    and the city is in my blood like a curse  and the people and the noise, only make it worse  and I can't tell you why there's no place I'd rather be  where am I going?, where am I going?, where am I going?, where am I going?    and the city drops on my head  when the city drops on my head  when the city drops on my head    dirty gray dropping rain down in my dreams  no one knows me, no one knows me, no one knows me, 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 wondering 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?, where am I going?, where am I going?, where am I going?,    when the city drops on my head  and the city drops on my head  and the city drops on my head  where am I going?
