I come into the city with nothing,
hoping that one day the front doors of fortune would open
And I'd taste the taste of things
I come into the city with nothing but yearning,
but slowly the fires within me stop burning
When I found out things I should
And no one bothers to look your way
Unless they want something
Unless they need something
Unless they see a laugh or two
It's a hard world where no one wants you
And no one gives you the time of day
So you can run around and
But you will never find a friend that way
I see people like me with nothing
Fighting their way through
to find I see people like me
Who thought the good things
were there for the taking
But found the good things are gone
And no one bothers to look your way
Unless they want something,
unless they need something
Unless they see a laugh or two
It's a hard world where no one wants you
And no one gives you the time of day
But you will never find a friend that way
