[Verse 1]
Buildings tower round me like they're waiting for the kill
For days I haven't eaten and I really do feel ill
If I cry for help, would you hear my call?
If I stumble now, would you let me fall?
Won't you give me a hand?
Try to understand
That I'm a stranger in the city
[Verse 2]
Stuck inside these streets it's like a human traffic jam
People walk right over me now, they don't give a damn
If I ask for death, would you give me a gun?
If I took your hand, would you turn and run?
Won't you pity me
Just try to see
That I'm a stranger in the city, yeah yeah
[Bridge]
All my friends were saying that the streets were paved with gold
I couldn't wait to get there from the stories I'd been told
There's everything that I could want, it sounded like a dream
But my money's gone
And I've got no one
Friends are nowhere to be seen
