Metropolis

You're caught in a mess oh that you can't escape
Lost to stress, misfortune and mistakes
I knew you'd wear yourself out
Before you really got your chance
The reason no one's reached out
Is cause you cut off both their hands

They say that there's a devil between us
They tell us expect delays
They tell us that the big one is coming
So close your eyes and obey

They say that there's a devil between us
It's not safe here so go away
But we never paid attention to details
So close your eyes and obey

Dreams are for children, warriors for profit
Art is not important to build this metropolis
Dreams are for children, warriors for profit
Art is not important to build this metropolis

We'll take the longer way there
Call it the scenic route
I know, I swear you don't care
I got suspicions and doubts

How can the future be free
Deprived of colours and sound
The news is red on TV
While we're distracted by clowns

They say that there's a devil between us
They tell us expect delays
They tell us that the big one is coming
So close your eyes and obey

They say that there's a devil between us
It's not safe here so go away
But we never paid attention to details
So close your eyes and obey

Dreams are for children, warriors for profit
Art is not important to build this metropolis
Dreams are for children, warriors for profit
Art is not important to build this metropolis
