Empty city, it`s calling your name
Wheel of fortune, sucking you into the game
It`s a fatal attraction, that pulls you like a moth to the flame
Empty city, sitting waiting in the hills
Babylonian, promising all kinds of thrills
Here they all know what they want
And they chase it with a passion that kills
Empty city, what`s easy come don`t let it go
Count your money, every day it seems to grow
Build a wall around your dream, get a gun, don`t let nobody close
Are you happy with the life that you chose?
She came in from the desert and the dust
And now she`s trying to stay afloat on a crazy sea of lust
It`s hard to love a city when that city has no heart
It`ll rape your mind and sell your body
It`ll tear your soul apart, tear it apart
`Cos when you scratch through the surface
You won`t find a damn thing underneath
And everybody`s moving on, that`s why I believe
It`s an empty city, it`s an empty city
(Solo)
Empty city, it`s calling your name
Wheel of fortune, sucking you into the game
It`s a fatal attraction that pulls you like a moth to the flame
`Til you`ve forgotten your name, where the streets are lined with pain
But I can`t stay away
It`s an empty city, empty city
