Over land, I traveled time and space and quicksand |
| [01:25.85] |
And for sixty days I knew no other road |
| [01:29.10] |
|
| [01:32.46] |
And through the maelstrom, which turned in time with the kick drum |
| [01:39.39] |
I was swallowed and twisted and spit out on a coast |
| [01:42.14] |
|
| [01:45.07] |
And in this place there stands a gate that leads to the heart of the city |
| [01:51.00] |
And I've spent seven years and a sea of fears in this broken mirror of a city |
| [01:56.37] |
|
| [01:57.80] |
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city |
| [02:00.44] |
|
| [02:01.82] |
Sweet sunlight,well I can see it in my mind's eye |
| [02:06.87] |
|
| [02:07.55] |
Yeah I remember feeling alright |
| [02:08.10] |
|
| [02:13.03] |
And I saw black clouds and Turin shrouds and it smelled of a faded empire |
| [02:18.71] |
|
| [02:19.40] |
It's all concrete and steel, we're asleep at the wheel, and the mayor's just a gun for hire |
| [02:25.26] |
|
| [02:26.26] |
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city |
| [02:29.45] |
|
| [02:32.56] |
Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city |
| [02:37.06] |
|
| [02:44.54] |
I've heard the song the morning sings |
| [02:46.60] |
|
| [02:47.66] |
Outside the gate is everything |
| [02:49.79] |
|
| [02:50.65] |
Let in the light! Let in the light! |
| [02:52.84] |
|
| [02:53.65] |
Streetwalker said to me she has no need for history |
| [02:58.21] |
|
| [02:59.52] |
She has the key she has the key |
| [03:01.39] |
|
| [03:02.64] |
Sweet sunlight, I can see it in my mind's eye |
| [03:07.63] |
|
| [03:08.32] |
Let in the light! Let in the light! |
| [03:10.38] |
|
| [03:33.82] |
Waking up from a dream where I was the stone and you were the stream |
| [03:39.08] |
|
| [03:40.01] |
Chemical City isn't all that you need but it's all that you're getting and they've hidden the key |
| [03:47.62] |
|
| [03:49.99] |
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city |
| [03:52.74] |
|
| [03:56.30] |
Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city |
| [03:59.13] |
|
| [04:09.54] |
I said this place is an unnatural disaster |
| [04:11.96] |
And I'm a visitor here so I asked her |
| [04:14.39] |
|
| [04:15.51] |
Where are the trees, where are the trees? |
| [04:17.58] |
|
| [04:19.27] |
And she said free yourself from history |
| [04:23.65] |
That is the key! That is the key! |
| [04:25.26] |
|
| [04:26.64] |
Sweet sunlight, well I can see it in my mind's eye |
| [04:31.82] |
|
| [04:32.76] |
I see the light! I see the light! |
| [04:34.45] |
|
| [04:47.48] |
The gate is gone now, you better run |
| [04:49.02] |
|
| [04:57.35] |
Can you feel it? There's a heartbeat missing in the city |
| [05:03.40] |
|
| [05:03.97] |
When all the fat cats are hissing at your pity |
| [05:06.65] |
|
| [05:07.21] |
You better run, run run run... |
