Interzone

I walked through the city limits,

Someone talked me in to do it,

Attracted by some force within it,

Had to close my eyes to get close to it,

Around a corner where a prophet lay,

Saw the place where she'd a room to stay,

A wire fence where the children played.

Saw the bed where the body lay,

And I was looking for a friend of mine.

And I had no time to waste.

Yeah, looking for some friends of mine.

The cars screeched hear the sound on dust,

Heard a noise just a car outside,

Metallic blue turned red with rust,

Pulled in close by the building's side,

In a group all forgotten youth,

Had to think, collect my senses now,

Are turned on to a knife edged view.

Find some places where my friends don't know,

And I was looking for a friend of mine.

And I had no time to waste.

Yeah, looking for some friends of mine.

Down the dark streets, the houses looked the same,

Getting darker now, faces look the same,

And I walked round and round.

No stomach, torn apart,

Nail me to a train,

Had to think again,

Trying to find a clue, trying to find a way to get out!

Trying to move away, had to move away and keep out.

Four, twelve windows, ten in a row,

Behind a wall, well I looked down low,

The lights shined like a neon show,

Inserted deep felt a warmer glow,

No place to stop, no place to go,

No time to lose, had to keep on going,

I guessed they died some time ago.

I guessed they died some time ago.

And I was looking for a friend of mine.

And I had no time to waste.

Yeah, looking for some friends of mine.
