Where are we going?
What is this place?
Somebody help me out of here!
Oh, I'm walking faster, faster and faster to nowhere
Oh, I'm running slower, slower and slower to somewhere
'Cause the city is closing tighter and tighter around me
It's a nightmare, daymare, it's a badmare no matter which way mare
Seems that there must be some way to get out
But I just can't find it
People pushing, pushing, hustling, hustling, rushing on into the future
Windows open, open, closing, closing in a way that they just never used to
Oh, there's violence, violence lurking, lurking in the alleys where no one should dare go
So keep walking, walking faster, faster, faster and faster to nowhere
I gotta get out, somebody
That guy came at me with a gun
The city's closing in!
(×4):
Trip to nowhere (×3)
We're gonna take a little
Children crying, crying, screaming, screaming, but no one lets on that they hear them
It's getting louder, louder, louder, louder, surely then someone must hear them
'Cause the city, city, is closing, closing tighter and tighter around me
It's a nightmare, nightmare, daymare, daymare, it's a badmare no matter which way mare
Help me, I wanna get out!
Cut it out! Stop closing in on me!
Help!

Trip to nowhere (×3)
