Lyrics Vanity Town - Transmission

Vanity Town

Did you hear the news this morning?
Another murder case
A young black guy was found in my street
A bullet stole his face
One more file a nameless number
A victim of these days
There are no answers to the questions
The bloods, they rule this place
On my way down to sunset
I hit the walk of fame
Lifetime stories in the stone
Our gods our holy grail
Try to explain the homeless girl
The beauty of this place
Do you think that she’s the one to blame
Hold your head up in the sky
Wake up open up your eyes
Just don’t be so terrified
Leave them alone
Tell me where we will go from here?
You have to read between the lines
To survive this world of lies
Tell me why do we live in fear?
In these times of doing what we’re told
We only love what we can control
This is how I feel
It always brings me down
This nightmare always brings me down
Save me from this dream
The madness in this town
Always makes me sick and makes me drown
With no directions out on the sea sailing towards misery
Face the storm, find a way
A passage through this sea of lies
Don’t get lost in their headlines
Learn to hear the voice inside
Tell me where we will go from here?
