poppy family – of cities and escapes lyrics
i live in a one room apartment with windows on one side i stare through the gl-ss ‘cross the water to where the big ugly city lies
i hear it i feel it i read it with my eyes and i’m lost in the crowd of the city a life i despise
i wake with a groan it’s the phone what news can it bring shh let it ring the paper lies crumpled on the floor politics and war and there goes the door and i who sit and watch it all go by wonder why i can’t go i’m caught in the grip of the city madness and small high in my mind out of the reach of time im moving far beyond the city and its power now its gone and as my wings ascend i feel them catch the wind above the traffics holler i watch the race for dollars the angry sweated collars as people waste their hours then there came a time when i knew it all was ending i felt my wings descend if only i could stay up another day i live in a one room apartment with windows on one side i stare through the gl-ss cross the water to where the big ugly city dies
