Power Of The Sun
|
|
|
Is this a citadel, is this a prison cell?
|
Who sits at my right hand now, who's watching me now?
|
Who made us live this way, when do I get my say
|
Automation turns us into human beings now
|
|
Tripping over faces, humanity has fallen
|
Huddled into doorways on the streets at dawn
|
|
[chorus:]
|
The power of the sun keeps us moving on
|
Spinning ever faster
|
The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls
|
Already in the past
|
|
Every dawn arrives the gathering of the tribes
|
Shattered waves of people breaking over city walls
|
Never out of touch, but always on your own
|
Trapped inside the logic of your own communication zone
|
|
What deals have been done, who's under the gun
|
Stay one step ahead of the next in line
|
|
[chorus:]
|
The power of the sun, it keeps us moving on
|
Spinning ever faster
|
The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls
|
Already in the past
|
|
[solo]
|
|
The cameras never lie, the ghost of you and I,
|
Already in the past
|
Inside a picture frame, we'll vanish once again
|
Now the dawn is coming fast...
|
|
[chorus:]
|
The power of the sun, it keeps us moving on
|
Spinning ever faster
|
The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls
|
Already in the past
|
