Lost another morning
Now it's going on two years
And this cough, it just won't go away
In the city of grey
I think I'm leaving today
Cuz I was staying for some reason
But for what I can't say
Cuz it's so cold outside
And I cannot take no one
(I'm alone all the time
Taking the path of the chosen few
The chosen few. The chosen few)
Cuz we've got more to do
This here city's worn all through
(You're waiting for someone
To take you away from the life you knew
The life you knew)
Emptied all my bottles
Burned my magazines
But so far I don't feel more sincere
Come on and smile, drink your beer
Could it take another year?
Cuz it's so cold outside
And I cannot take no one
(I'm alone all the time
Taking the path of the chosen few
The chosen few. The chosen few)
Cuz we've got more to do
This here city's worn all through
(You're waiting for someone
To take you away from the life you knew
The life you knew)
Don't let go of my fragile hands
I know somehow you'll understand
