Been gettin' tired of my motor runnin'
Feelin' over heated 'cause my life keeps comin'
My hearts been troubled by the speed of love

Searchin' the streets for a soul committee
Talkin' ideas on lust and pity
The fables I've found have no place at home

Well, I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth
Say I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth, yeah

Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city

Well, roll the dice, pay the price
Dance with wolves in a pack of lies
The blood we crave shall drive us all insane

Yeah, outer space, it's a lovely place
The long lost love in flower vase
Layin' on the floor shattered, battered and bruised

Well, I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth
Say I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth, yeah

Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city

I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth
Say I need you to want me
To hold me, to tell me the truth, yeah

Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
