Oh I'm walking faster, faster and

faster to nowhere

Oh I'm running slower, slower and

slower to somewhere

'Cause the city, is closing tighter,

tighter and tighter around me



It's a nightmare, daymare, it's a

badmare no matter which way mare.

People pushing, hustling, rushing on

into the future

Windows open, closing in a way that

they just never use to



Oh there's violence lurking in

the alleys where no one should dare go

So keep walking faster, faster and

faster to nowhere



Children crying, screaming, but no

one lets on that they hear them



It's getting louder, louder, surely

then someone must hear them



'Cause the city is closing tighter,

tighter and tighter around me



It's a nightmare, daymare, it's a

badmare no matter which way mare
