Lyrics London's Rose - Douglas Dare

London's Rose

What’s above these walls?
Empty land and empty calls?
Echoes numb through these halls
But lying back can feel it all
Oh it’s quiet down here
Oh it’s quiet down here
Oh it’s quiet down here
Down here
Entire world under the street
Soiled air you cannot breathe
Lines and lines of shoeless feet
One hundred beds under one sheet
Oh it’s hot down here
Oh it’s hot down here
Oh it’s hot down here
Down here
White mosaic hedgerows
With signposts overgrown
Destination unknown
Where’s London’s rose?
Where’s London’s rose?
Oh alive down here
Oh alive down here
Oh alive down here
Down here
Take us back up to the top
Take us back up
