Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Way to go, it's a show
And my head is a rock
I see the cities waiting for me
Like a man on the lamb
Too much people in traffic jams
It's the end
[Pre-Chorus]
Nowhere to run, but the there's nowhere to hide
Cause you've broken my game to be direct
But today is the stop
Cause my dream is to reach at the top
Yes the top
(Come on boy)
[Chorus]
Come and blow your bottom dollar
And you're feeling the passion
Close your mind you're wasting time and
Take a hammer
Misery is busy and you need a convention
Kill today and not tomorrow
Love is on the wire
But you missed the connection
Close you're mind, you're wasting time and
Take a hammer
Mystery is power and the greatest collection
Kill today, don't wait tomorrow
Take a hammer
[Verse 2]
Way to go, it's a show
Was a nightmare or not?
I dream of having someone to kill
I was there, I will stay
In the city of nowhere man
Was the end
