Sick City Lyrics

Sick city yeah
Restless people
Sick city yeah
Burned their houses down
To make sky look pretty

What can I do? I'm just a person
This is the line
That we always seem to hear
You just sit, things get worse
Watch tv and drink your beer

Walking alone not going anywhere
Walking alone nobody seems to care
Restless as the wind this town is killing me
Gotta put an end to this restless misery

I'm just one of those restless people
Who can never seem to be
Satisfied with living
In this sickle sickle six six six sick city

It may be too late for me to say goodbye
It may be too late to watch a sick city die
Going on a road
Yeah I'm gonna try
I say sick city, so long farewell goodbye and die.

Charles Manson cover song. Leaving the town in which you came from. The Sick City. You don't care if it all dies because it was never a part of you.

this was a song, like Kilby said, originally written and preformed by the shock icon charles manson. but your a little off on the concept. the song is about society in all. see charlie, as well as the whole manson family, were completely exposed to the full effects of marijuana and LSD. in so they saw many flaws in society and, so they saw it, great wars would come and before charlie got to the point of taking action to win the world from the jews, blacks, government, corperation, etc. he looked for release from such a "Sick City" hence the lyrc "..gotta put an end to this restless misery..." and in the end its almost like a suicide message saying hes gonna try to say goodbye. this is by far my favorite charles manson song. but i've only been able to find marilyn manson's version. but when i listen to it i can see and hear straight through the "honorable" brian Warner and hear charlie himself. its realy powerful. -thank you
