This is place is wasteland It's written all over your face The strip malls stretch out to skyscrapers Sprawl up into space I've got to get out of here Before it gets into us, I swear We can slip out the door While there's life still to taste Before the first light hits the steel wires We'll make our escape Do you think you're the only one Starving for wonder? 'Cause you're not the only one Who's going under We'll sneak through the streets Coolly watching the ghost neon glow There's no need for road signs To read or a map to follow Straight into the darkness ahead And into the silence Where everything disappears And no one can ever find us Empty faces And other spaces close Silent faces Steal these wasted souls Soon we will be gone now Soon we will be gone now This is place is a wasteland It's written all over your face Let's slip through the cracks in the floor now There's no time to waste I've got to out of here Before it gets into us, I swear
