Forgotten Virtue
Each day I leave my realm, step out of my door - I
breathe in carefully
Then from the black fa ades I watch the rain fall - and
courage falls in me
I try to see the sky but I just see walls - they trap
me silently
Some people shout at me and it's a known call: the city
jeers at me
And I can not, I can not stand it all ...
It bruises all my life and all I lived for - unfurls so
ruthlessly
Exists to vandalize, I hate it much more - it kills the
child in me
And naturally surrounds me day in, day out,
phagocytizes all
They call it just progress I call it breakdown - am I
the only one?
And I can not, I can not stand it all ...
Scaffolds rising through the sky ... so threatening ...
They sprout and spill their concrete lies
If this is what you want to live through - just myopic
curiosity
If this is what satisfies you - then I lost the faith I
had in me
... Oh, you got to feel ...
False vows paired with false intentions - but they
drown in all the other lies
But if there's something I believe in, then there has
to be another side
It leads my away, it drags me away, it pulls my away,
it drives me away
Each day I leave my realm, step out of my door - I
breathe in carefully
Then from the black fa ades I watch the rain fall - and
courage falls in me
I try to see the sun but I just see clouds - and people
pass my way
So with a known disgust I quickly turn round - it's
just a normal day
