[Intro]
Where am I going? What is this place?
Somebody help me outta here

[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm walking faster, faster and faster to nowhere
Oh, I'm running slower, slower and slower to somewhere
'Cause the city's closing tighter and tighter around me
It's a nightmare, daymare, it's a badmare no matter which way-mare

[Interlude]
Seems that there must be some way to get out
But I just can't find it

[Verse 2]
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

[Interlude]
I gotta get out, somebody ... that guy came at me with a gun
The city's closing in

[Bridge]
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little
[Verse 3]
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's (City) closing (Closer) tighter and tighter around me
'Cause it's a nightmare (Nightmare), daymare (Daymare), it's a badmare no matter which way-mare

[Interlude]
Help me, I wanna get out
Cut it out! Stop closing in on me! HELP!!!

[Bridge]
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little (Faster and faster)
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little (Faster and faster)
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little (Faster and faster)
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little
Trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere, trip to nowhere
We're gonna take a little (Faster and faster)
