Robert McAtee - City of Frustration Lyrics

I can't sleep 'cause I'm not satisfied.
My head is filled with silly dreams and aggressive thoughts drivin' me to the city of frustration.
I'm left with an empty suitcase filled with aggravation.
My heart hasn't given up on romance but he's a stubborn fool.
'Cause cupid doesn't travel to the city of frustration.
He's gone away on a long winter's vacation.
I'm walkin' down an empty street while the world is fast asleep.
I wish the sky was blue but I'm always left in the dark.
I wish the sun would help me find a place to ease my mind.
Where dreams would be real and love I could feel.
Every corner is filled with anticipation but I'm lost and alone in the city of frustration.
I set me hopes high and the nights go by.
I try to stay true to my heart. I won't settle for a mediocre life.
'Cause I've got needs. I need to find what's right for me.
These buildings are empty like this bottle of wine.
I'm lookin' to the future 'cause it's all I've got left.
Every door that I open takes me further into my dream.
I've come this far. I'm not turnin' around. Not for lack of money.
Not for lack of love and adoration.
I'm a stubborn fool livin' in the city of frustration.
One day the sun will come up and I can leave this place.
'Cause this story can't end without an ending.
I'm walkin' down an empty street while the world is fast asleep.
I wish the sky was blue but I'm always left in the dark.
I wish the sun would help me find a place to ease my mind.
Where dreams would be real and love I could feel.
Every corner is filled with anticipation but I'm lost and alone in the city of frustration.

I can't sleep 'cause I'm not satisfied.
My head is filled with silly dreams and aggressive thoughts drivin' me to the city of frustration.
I'm left with an empty suitcase filled with aggravation.
My heart hasn't given up on romance but he's a stubborn fool.
'Cause cupid doesn't travel to the city of frustration.
He's gone away on a long winter's vacation.
I'm walkin' down an empty street while the world is fast asleep.
I wish the sky was blue but I'm always left in the dark.
I wish the sun would help me find a place to ease my mind.
Where dreams would be real and love I could feel.
Every corner is filled with anticipation but I'm lost and alone in the city of frustration.
I set me hopes high and the nights go by.
I try to stay true to my heart. I won't settle for a mediocre life.
'Cause I've got needs. I need to find what's right for me.
These buildings are empty like this bottle of wine.
I'm lookin' to the future 'cause it's all I've got left.
Every door that I open takes me further into my dream.
I've come this far. I'm not turnin' around. Not for lack of money.
Not for lack of love and adoration.
I'm a stubborn fool livin' in the city of frustration.
One day the sun will come up and I can leave this place.
'Cause this story can't end without an ending.
I'm walkin' down an empty street while the world is fast asleep.
I wish the sky was blue but I'm always left in the dark.
I wish the sun would help me find a place to ease my mind.
Where dreams would be real and love I could feel.
Every corner is filled with anticipation but I'm lost and alone in the city of frustration.
