I keep walking down the same city streets
   The same city lines, to the same lonely beat
   People say hello but I don't know what to say
   I don't know how I feel, I just can't act that way
   I wanna hide from all these strangers
   I wanna run home to you
   All I need is your compassion
   Then we can be free,yes
   I wanna be free,yes
   I wanna be free
   I wanna be free
  
   Oh, the way I'm shut out by your silence
   It's the loudest thing I've ever known
   You leave me, leave me hanging
   'til I feel useless with my hope
   Oh, it's lonely in the city
   It can be lonely next to you
   Just have the courage to open up yourself
   Then we can be free,yes
   I wanna be free
   I wanna be free
   I wanna be free
