V1
I've been living in the city
Where its easy to go missing
I'm having trouble breathing
Bright lights their killing
Its busy but its lonely
Always thinking oh if only
I could i find some to hold me
Someone to show me
How to make it through the day
CH
But i can't leave
The illusions that i am free
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
No streets empty
But all i got is me
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
V2
People always rushing
On their way to nothing
The weight it can be crushing
Searching for something
Theres an underlying tension
They let you in but you ain't welcome
They sell this place as heaven
But they don't mention
That your only gonna break
CH
But i can't leave
The illusions that i am free
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
No streets empty
But all i got is me
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
M8
With buildings built so high
You’d think its easy to touch the sky
But falling ain't like flying don't you see
With roads they built so wide
Can hardly see the other side
Your crawling always fighting till you’re free
CH x2
But i can't leave
The illusions that i am free
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
No streets empty
But all i got is me
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
Prisoner Of the City
