Like a Military Coup

When the tower tumbled

We began anew

Had no time for warning

Only déjà vu

It comes flashing back

Then just fades to black

All gone

All the land rejoices

Now the coast is clear

No more silent voices

To whisper in your year

I am in my element

With a panoramic view

There's no inspiration like

A military coup

Children blowing kisses

Strangers to the truth

Carrying the wishes

Of a bygone youth

Bye-bye cabaret

Sci-fi agony

All gone

All the land rejoices

Now the coast is clear

No more silent voices

To whisper in your ear

I am in my element

With a panoramic view

There's no compensation like

A military coup

A mellow melody

Rolling endlessly

How long?

How long?

How long?
