Forgotten Virtue |
| Each day I leave my realm, step out of my door — I breathe in carefully |
| Then from the black façades I watch the rain fall — and courage falls in me |
| I try to see the sky but I just see walls — they trap me silently |
| Some people shout at me and it’s a known call: the city jeers at me And I can not, I can not stand it all … |
| It bruises all my life and all I lived for — unfurls so ruthlessly |
| Exists to vandalize, I hate it much more — it kills the child in me And naturally surrounds me day in, day out, phagocytizes all |
| They call it just progress I call it breakdown — am I the only one? |
| And I can not, I can not stand it all … |
| Scaffolds rising through the sky … so threatening … |
| They sprout and spill their concrete lies |
| If this is what you want to live through — just myopic curiosity |
| If this is what satisfies you — then I lost the faith I had in me |
| … Oh, you got to feel … |
| False vows paired with false intentions — but they drown in all the other lies |
| But if there’s something I believe in, then there has to be another side |
| It leads me away, it drags me away, it pulls me away, it drives me away |
| Each day I leave my realm, step out of my door — I breathe in carefully |
| Then from the black façades I watch the rain fall — and courage falls in me |
| I try to see the sun but I just see clouds — and people pass my way |
| So with a known disgust I quickly turn round — it’s just a normal day |
