The Age Of Progress |
The city sets the motion |
And the people feel its pace |
Where it stops I have no motion |
And the prospect is so hard to face |
My room was dim I wished for better |
But what I gained was so much worse |
This concrete’s garden is overgrowing |
And the city life is just a curse |
There’s building reaching out they’re all around me |
Stone fingers up to the sky |
Keeping out the sun and air that’s all around me |
Choked by these weeds I cry |
It’s the age of progress, it’s the time for change |
In the shadows of progress we all lie |
It’s the age of progress, it’s the time for change |
In the shadows of progress we all cry |
Long time ago the world lost Eden |
But we need not live in a wreckers yard |
I find it hard to point my finger |
When I have also taken part |
Like the people with their heads in sand |
Life’s parades gone by |
«We never saw or heard a word» they sang |
They raised their head and they cried |
It’s the age of progress, it’s the time for change |
In the shadows of progress we all lie |
It’s the age of progress, it’s the time for change |
In the shadows of progress we all cry |
