In the city
Somewhere out there on that horizon
在看不到的地平线外
Out beyond the neon lights
在没有霓虹灯闪烁的远方
I know there must be something better
我知道那里有更美好的生活
But there's nowhere else in sight
但是我却看不到它在哪里
It's survival in the city
在城市里生存
When you live from day to day
日子一天一天地过
City streets don't have much pity
城市的街道没有怜悯
When you're down that's where you'll stay
哪天你倒下了，那就是你的宿命
In the city oh oh
在这城市里，哦哦
In the city
在这城市里
I was born here in the city
我在这座城里出生
With my back against the wall
背靠墙壁
Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty
什么也没有，生活没那么美妙
No one's there to catch you when you fall
你潦倒的时候没有人扶你一把
Somewhere out on that horizon
在视线到达不了的地方
Faraway from the neon sky
没有霓虹灯闪烁的远方
I know there must be something better
我知道那里有更美好的未来
And i can't stay another night
今夜无法停留
In the city oh oh
在这城市里，哦哦
In the city
在这城市里
