The city k**s your naive dreams
You learn it as you grow
The more you try to resist
The more it starts to show
Corrupting, twisting atmosphere
Becomes a part of you
Your innocence just fades away
And there's nothing you can do
You save your joy for a payday
Material obsessions you obey
The city feeds your unsure heart
With rush and discontent
It drives you to a state of mind
Where your lifeline has been bent
The k**er instinct takes control
The shadows come to rule
Those kings behind the scenes
Will guide your kind of mindless fool
What maze of sadness there lies
A reign of hell in disguise
Blood stains the empty streets
That's where the city comes to die
And though you see it through your needs
U can't find the strength to say goodbye
