This city
Everywhere I go
I see faces I know
All in their different zones
As we're flying
Through this world underground
And my eyes are wide shut
I'm not hearing a sound
Time standing still
Surrounded by sad hearts unfulfilled
Empty places for the disenchanted
Pass and fade away
Distant dreams
Where I go
Distant dreams
When I'm low
As they echo in my head
Distant dreams
How they flow
Distant dreams
Moving slow
As I'm falling out of time
I still have distant dreams here in my mind
Faces distorted by pressure
Everyone forced together
Spilling out through the doors
No more spaces
It's a dog-eat-dog world
And a mad free-for-all
Maybe room for one more
Time standing still
Surrounded by sad hearts unfulfilled
Empty places for the disenchanted
Pass and fade away
Distant dreams
Where I go
Distant dreams
When I'm low
As they echo in my head
Distant dreams
How they flow
Distant dreams
Moving slow
As I'm falling out of time
I still have distant dreams here in my mind
Distant dreams
Where I go
Distant dreams
When I'm low
As they echo ? Echo - in my head
Distant dreams
How they flow
Distant dreams
Moving slow
As heartbreak surrounds me
And heartache has found me
Distant dreams
Where I go
Distant dreams
When I'm low
As they echo in my head
Distant dreams
How they flow
Distant dreams
Moving slow
As I'm falling out of time
I still have distant dreams here in my mind
