Tall and Dark

Amongst tall buildings
And in these dark streets
I wander aimlessly
Lost in my own world
A world of pleasure
A world of pain

And the next day again
Different buildings so tall
And new streets so dark
I wander once again
A world of pleasure 
A world of pain

The sun eclipsed 
By these tall buildings
The dark streets
All lit by neon lights
A world of pleasure
A world of pain

I wander aimlessly
I search carelessly 
To find the sun
In this world of neon
A world of pleasure
A world of pain

And I fail again
To find the true light
Artificial neon
no substitute for real
A world of pleasure
A world of pain

Look beyond tall egos
To find the true light
Look for the real
Beyond the dark mind
A world of real
A world eternal
