The mumbling in the streets is monotone and numbing Someone wants to break out and leave the dust track running After choking birds by hand too exhausted from all their humming Sirens and whistles resonate From the walls of unmanned buildings Construction is over This section is further away Planes flap their wings and brides weigh their rings in stone Rotting teeth and melting cheese A train stops in its track Cause a drone felt a lone and went Looking for home As the rain came pooring all over Mercury and lead is washed away And the bare land is seen from the sky The telephone rings but there's noone to take the call Vending machines full of crusty pipe dreams Melt in another wildfire A violet torn in a heavy duststorm that took down The planes and the choppers Rotatorblades bent and stuck in the soil Roots that were buried but barely untouched Are pulled out like cords and cables A wireless system and a meaningless creature Crouching to hide from the law Taking offence in any comment Searchlights slice the cold Spring night Wrinkles under his eyes Fuled by the paranoia A fusion of a fantasy threat And some real hardcore persecution They enter the tunnel and lose their signals The walkie-talkies are useless in here They light candles And torches And almost die in the smoke As the colemine comes alive in flames Almost cause they reach a crossroads And escape through a sewage canal Small boys and lost toys swim upstream And laugh at the smell of the dead Limbs that flow freely One survivor got stuck in a narrowing pipeline Her head underwater but her feet dry as the sand That was on the riverbank
