| Drive through the city at night
|
| Trying to stay distracted
|
| Past the dead eyes
|
| Past the cold hands
|
| I see the blood on the street
|
| I see the smoke in the air
|
| But further down the street
|
| I see a different picture
|
| Towers like Babylon
|
| Reach up and block out the sun
|
| This can’t go on forever
|
| Soon it will all be gone
|
| I Know it’s hard for you
|
| It’s all you’ve ever known
|
| So much that you’ve collected
|
| The wealth that you protected
|
| Every brick, every page, every bone, into dust
|
| Every block, every cage, every grave, into dust
|
| Every screen, every glass, every wheel, into dust
|
| I know it’s hard for you
|
| It’s all you’ve every known
|
| So much that you’ve protected
|
| The wealth that you wrecked
|
| Every brick, every page, every bone, into dust
|
| Every block, every cage, every grave, into dust
|
| Every screen, every glass, every wheel, into dust |
