No Place Special
Hot July night under a cool mooned sky
Silent the mood not a breeze on the fly
Hollow shots ring out a final goodbye
No place special, the city, waiting nearby
============================
Lonely old man without a piece of the pie
No one cares he struggles alone to get by
Talks to himself with the grim reaper's reply
No place special, the city, waiting nearby
===============================
Hope comes up short when the love runs dry
And hunger is a beast where rules don't apply
Hostage to a matter of means you cannot defy
No place special, life in the city, waiting nearby
===================================
Humanity on a mission without the hint of an ally
Tunnel vision with space for only the mind's eye
Heightening the distance between you and I
No place special, life in the city, waiting nearby
===================================
Brick walls hold breathing room in short supply
Where neighborly don't care about the other guy
And fresh air is a figment only made to deny
No place special, life in the city, waiting nearby
===================================
