I don't need another injection
You see I have the Lord's protection
What would happen if love could
rule the world?

There are roaches in my sink
No wonder I need another drink
I see mice and rats running everywhere
I need space

I need mornings
I need life to be cleaner
I want romance
And I want those starry nights

I think the skyscrapers are in my way
You think they are beautiful
That's what you say
Meanwhile I myself can barely breathe

Maybe fall
After all
Will bring about a new sensation
You see, I want to feel elation

I want there to be light
And I don't think it's right
to hear other people's arguments
Outside my door

It might make you feel less lonely
And there I do agree
But I'm afraid that I don't
Speak their language

Let's just go away
Oh, what do you say?
To another place in time
I cannot bear the disappointment

Of this city.
