|
Life in the city is a cul-de-sac |
|
Everybody wears a two faced mask |
|
Trade virtues in a thin disguise |
|
That's why they can't look you in the eye |
|
Making money is a means to an end |
|
But all that money cannot buy good friends |
|
Caught in the tangle of your own self doubt |
|
Hope nobody gonna find you out |
|
You're gonna have to trust somebody |
|
You can't go flying with a broken wing |
|
All you've gotta do is call on me |
|
We are gonna be the best of friends |
|
The only way you're ever gonna work things out |
|
Is turn away from the fears and doubts |
|
You're looking helpless as a refugee |
|
There's so many things you just can't see |
|
Can't trade emotions on an I.O.U. |
|
You're gonna find that the joke's on you |
|
Gold diggers at the midnight mass |
|
Sell their souls away for cold hard cash |
|
All of us strangers from the twilight zone |
|
Got no direction and we can't find home |
|
You're gonna have to trust somebody |
|
You can't go flying with a broken wing |
|
All you've gotta do is call on me |
|
We are gonna be the best of friends |
|
The only way you're ever gonna work things out |
|
Is turn away from the fears and doubts |
