lyrics

Well this is CITY LIFE
For better or for worse
Even on a shitty day
I still live in the greatest place on earth

I'd wish upon a star
But I can't see them anymore
I must be blinded by the light
Up on the penthouse apartment floor

But where
Do I go?

So many directions
I don't know

N, S, E, W
Which one is best?

When will I know
Is this a test?

I guess I'm just gonna have to figure this out on my own. . . .
my Own

And people love to pretend
How badly they want to get out
But I remind myself that's what
Livin' in the City's all about

Everything's relatively fine,
but nothing ever goes your way
You're constantly kicking yourself
because you never take the time to play

Cuz you're so busy

Oh I'm just trying to find some
Peace of mind
And when I do
I'll give you all my time

But for now I'm not satisfied,
So I'll keep looking in your eyes

I guess I'm just gonna have to figure this out on my own . . . .
I guess I'm just gonna have to figure this out on my own . . . .
I guess I'm just gonna have to figure this out on my own

my Own.
