During A City Lyrics - Henry Rollins

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
