Arab Architects Are strung up by their necks Singing Hallelujah, hallelujah Blessed be the lord And now I'm drifting through the streets Drinking gypsy wine saying I can't believe how strange it is to be alive right now
I see the good people trying I remember when comfort was not an option (But we were younger then) Disciplined and strange Focused and restrained We were younger then
If you need some quiet time To process all that guilt Well the desert lasts for days and out there There's nothing else to do Round here they turn ocean into land And sell that land for gold Use that gold to build themselves bigger better homes
I see cranes on the horizon I remember when comfort was not an option (We were younger then) Disciplined and strange Focused and restrained We were younger then
When I go to sleep I hardly ever dream And when I'm wide awake I can't believe what I see
I see the good people trying I remember when comfort was not an option (We were younger then) Disciplined and strange Focused and restrained We were younger then
When I go to sleep I hardly ever dream When I'm wide awake I can't believe what I see
Only in pictures before have I seen Anything like from where I am standing Looking I can't tell where the city stops And the nothing begins Only in pictures before have I seen Anything like from where I am standing Looking I can't tell where the city stops And the nothing begins, begins, begins (And the nothing begins)
