Big City of X-Rated Click Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When your heart is bruised
And your soul is worn
And you're searching for sincerity
When there's nothing new
Cause a hole's been torn
Through the fragile threads of clarity

[Chorus]
I guess that's what makes us human
I guess that's what makes us human
We think therefore we are a bit confused
Promises we make we break to keep ourselves amused
Everybody sometimes feels like somebody's watching you
And it keeps us human

Every day you feel the pain
Of loneliness and
You've got no one to blame
And people they talk about it
Like it's the daily news
And nobody understands it
Neither do I

[Chorus]

I am just a man, a man in a city, a city in a state, a state in a
Country, country in a world, part of a system, drivin' through the




City, stereo is on. People goin' everywhere, people getting nowhere,
With the will to carry on
