I hear the roar of a big machine
|
Two worlds and in between
|
Hot metal and methedrine
|
I hear empire down
|
I hear empire down
|
|
I hear the roar of a big machine
|
Two worlds and in between
|
Love lost, fire at will
|
Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, I hear
|
Dive, bombers, and
|
Empire down
|
Empire down
|
|
I hear the sons of the city and the dispossessed
|
Get down, get undressed
|
Get pretty but you and me,
|
We got the kingdom, we got the key
|
We got the empire, now as then
|
We don't doubt, we don't take direction
|
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me...
|
|
We look hard
|
We look through
|
We look hard to see for real
|
Such things I hear, they don't make sense
|
I don't see much evidence
|
I don't feel
|
I don't feel
|
I don't feel
|
|
A long train held up page on page
|
A hard reign held up by rage
|
Once a railroad
|
Now it's done...
|
|
I hear the roar of a big machine
|
Two worlds and in between
|
Hot metal and methedrine
|
I hear empire down...
|
|
We got the empire, now as then
|
We don't doubt, we don't take reflection
|
Lucretia, my direction, dance the ghost with me...
