One City - Hey Ocean!

One city sleeps, though lights never cease

Astonishing me through clouds and over dreams

One city fades

For rent and maze

Through turbulent stages

One city unchanged

One city hears

It’s children in tears

Babies shed tears falling from their first years

One city gone

From night that one charm

A love has been known, one city alone

One city rests with rain and lust on buildings and curbs

Well they screw without words

These people’s lives

Cut with bad knives

But who is to blame for one city and place

Soul upon soul strive for this control

The buildings will break

They will find their escape from palms that sweat

Forgive not forget the fingers that bleed

One city in need

I close my eyes I try to sleep

But I just cannot seem to keep away the dreams

Exhausted words attempt to teach

Everyone seems out of reach

They do not hear me

They do not hear because they’re weak

I know exactly where they’ve been and where that dead end street leads

I close my eyes and try to keep away from these tears, these fears

And get out of these lucid dreams

Wake up, look beyond the buildings that surround you

Way up, you will find a world that will astound you (x4)
