A stranger in this city
among a sea of strangers.
Hubbub Hustle and bustle
Confusion and chaos
On streets and sidewalks.
A stranger in this city
among a sea of strangers.
Lost , bewildered and lonely
Amongst masses of people
Rushing , Walking to and fro.
A stranger in this city
among a sea of strangers
Dwarfed by towering buildings
Grey concrete tentacles
That eclipse sunset , moon and stars
A stranger in this city
Among a sea of strangers
Neon signs and billboards
Their strong flickering lights
Blurr my weak eye-sight
A stranger in this city
Among a sea of strangers
Honking Vehicules cram
In a terrible traffic jam
The overwhelming din
Makes my head spin.
A stranger in this city
among a sea of strangers.
Shattered dreams vaporize
And mingle with the smog
That hovers over the city
The strange city of razzmatazz.
