‘Gotham City’ Lyrics

She is the wind cooled down – all the way cold.
Blue is the blood of power. Black are the dusted bones.

and I would’ve fallen for her, she is dispairs cold flower.
Pulled at the strings above her – run with lust of power.

She is deaths ice charm , lonelinesses slow song.
She is the watchers eye to her own requiem:

And I would’ve fallen for her – she is the hangmans moon.
White is the face that draws us – black is the edge of ruin.

The Factory

‘The Factory’ Lyrics

Here in the steel-mill we are forming
farming the templates of facade.
Barbed and explicit, they are anchors
weighing the measure of the stars.

Spitting the sparks of ultimatum
turning the wheel like a blade
calling the ironman and his daughter
lie in the maiden that we’ve made.

cos they are and they are and they are

walk on the ladder when you’ve paid

‘The Trend’ Lyrics

The golden child smiles discontinued dreams
with words that flow too easily to hear.
The swimmers dive and try to catch the waves –
their laughter flows like honey coated razor blades.

And she is just some little girl who likes to pick the flowers
and show them how to make the grade
She rides the crest of manufactured waves and says that
she’s become what she herself has made:

And someone used to say the tide would turn.
And when it does, be where you want to be.
The winds of change blow singing with her tears :
and pulled her out and drowned her instead of me

I am higher, I am higher.
Holier than you
holier.
