From the recording Time [2022 remixed & mastered]
Lyrics
The City
I see the city and the buildings reaching higher and higher
I see technology advance
I see society quick and painlessly collapsing
And it's all just getting out of hand now
I see the light, I see the way it has to be now
I'll rise above this, yes you'll see.
I see the life, the pain, the sacrifice, the blood that follows
I know there's no escape and yes I know what that means.
And you know the fight for the city masses is gonna be coming here in time.
Scrape away the carcinogens that dull and tarnish and free a million hungry minds
Do you think your government can't hear you?
It's just that they don't care much about you
Do you think that no one is listening?
Everyone's listening... NSA is listening.
And did you know that everyone's a fuckin asshole
I've seen a million times before
Right down to the last one of us on this planet
You can't deny it and you know we've got to tear it all down now
Destroy it, destroy it... tear it all down now
