The Great Divide



The Great Divide

I saw the city burn all night long (in the great divide)
Who would’ve thought we would here that song (hear it so many times)
All along I knew you would know
Searching for truth as we’re dyeing slow (in a toxic head of smoke)
No one could forget that sound

Glued to the TV now every night
Suits all keep talking but something’s not right (and I’m tired of all these lies)
Watching our future just crash to the ground
The age of innocence took a taxi out of town (in white powder and ashes)
No one could forget that sound

Lining your pockets with every last breath
You think that it’s over but we never forget (no we never forget)
Sinking so deep now and the secrets are kept
Sinking so deep until nothing is left (except a barbed wire fence)
No one could forget that sound

It’s a death roll
It’s a final blow
 They rush to bury it all
Because they want your eyes closed
