City Of
Fools
[Lyrics by Ron
Mann] ©2012 CHA Promotions
Empty people with shattered lives
Empty faces with darkness for eyes
Empty footsteps walking in lies
Empty ears hear demon’s cries
Empty garbage covered with flies
Empty efforts, where nobody tries
Empty sunsets over filthy skies
Empty futures, say your goodbyes
Stuck in this city with nothing to show
Walking these streets with nowhere to go
Privileged people making stupid rules
Stuck in this city, this city of fools
Stuck in this city as cold winds blow
Why I remain here, I really don’t know
Rundown buildings, built without tools
Stuck in this city, this city of fools
Empty pockets, no change to spare
Empty sidewalks, don’t seem to care
Empty victims just sit and stare
Empty meanings, life isn’t fair
Empty newspapers so easy to tare
Empty reasons for being there
Empty days get harder to bear
Empty gods don’t hear my prayer
Stuck in this city with nothing to show
Walking these streets with nowhere to go
Privileged people making stupid rules
Stuck in this city, this city of fools
Stuck in this city as cold winds blow
Why I remain here, I really don’t know
Rundown buildings, built without tools
Stuck in this city, this city of fools
