Verse: City of Steel Shadows
July 11, 2024 at 3:27 PM
The city falls asleep, the shadows creep out,
Steel trees spread their leaves.
Cold metal beneath the bark,
In every gauge a life flickers.
Roman walks down the avenue in a rage,
Pain in his fists, questions in his head.
Kate, the redheaded beast, offers him her heart,
But love is for the weak, he knows that.
♪ A city of steel shadows, a city of false lights ♪
♪ It's every man for himself, every man in his own cage ♪
The cure for death, the cure for lies,
Swallow this pill and just live.
The aurora in the lab is humming softly,
# The wires of the lab are filled with secrets #
# She whispers of three boxes, she sings of souls #
And Flint, dumbfounded, wanders on his way out.
A city of steel shadows, a city of false lights,
♪ It's every man for himself, every man in his own cage ♪
The cure for death, the cure for lies,
♪ swallow this pill and just live ♪
♪ Alex, the truth hunter, the sensationalist is on the prowl ♪
♪ Rain on the windows, the city is convulsing ♪
In the park, amidst the shadows, someone's life will be cut short,
Only the TLNTS sunglasses remain as evidence #
A city of steel shadows, a city of false lights,
It's every man for himself, every man in his own cage ♪
The cure for death, the cure for lying ♪
Swallow this pill and just live.
