lyrics

I was lost again in the concrete city
l asked the people there for a way out of that city
but they didn't understand or just thought l was nuts
and when l asked again they said
"here is money, just buy what you want!"

so l looked for beauty, they just sold TV
I looked for spirit, They had all kind of drugs
searching for love, they could sell me sex
all I wanted was life, they just sold stuFf and more stuff
stuff and more stuff
and I found myself looking for the exit again

still I was lost, I asked again for the exit
they told me to shut up, while they were watching TV
I saw the emptiness dripping out, I began to run

(run run)

I found myself again, in the sun, in the desert
I found myself again, in the poison rain, where the ruins lie
I found myself again far from the city but with the city in me
why had I run???
I found myself again far from the city but with the city in me
why had I run???
