|
I hear the roar of a big machine |
|
Two worlds and in between |
|
Hot metal and methedrine |
|
I hear empire down |
|
I hear the empire down |
|
I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed |
|
Get down, get undressed |
|
We get pretty but you and me |
|
We got the kingdom, we got the key |
|
We got the empire, now as then |
|
We don't doubt, we don't take direction |
|
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me |
|
I hear the roar of a big machine |
|
Two worlds and in between |
|
Love lost, fire at will |
|
Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, |
|
I hearDive, bombers and empire down |
|
I hear the empire down |
|
I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed |
|
Get down, get undressed |
|
We get pretty but you and me |
|
We got the kingdom, we got the key |
|
We got the empire, now as then |
|
We don't doubt, we don't take direction |
|
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me |
|
We look hard, we look through |
|
We look hard to see for real |
|
Such things |
|
I hear, they don't make sense |
|
I don't see much evidence |
|
I don't feel, |
|
I don't feel, |
|
I don't feel |
|
I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed |
|
Get down, get undressed |
|
We get pretty but you and me |
|
We got the kingdom, we got the key |
|
We got the empire, now as then |
|
We don't doubt, we don't take direction |
|
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me |
|
A long train held up by page on page |
|
A hard reign held up by rage |
|
Once a railroad now it's done |
|
The empire has begun |
