Cities

Cities, laughing people
And concrete streets that all crack equally under hot tar
My, my, we've come far

Highways spread like cancer
Headlights dance across the ceiling, leaving dark things
Alone and unseen

Factories drip red water
Creatures slaughtered by the humans who consume them
Life is fuel to them

Where the lights, constant sound
Drown out my fear of extinction

Oceans are getting blacker
And people bluer, every sewer holds its last gasp
Come on and let me breathe a little

Where the lights, constant sound
Drown out my fear of extinction
