No painted trains on the underground No kids with spray cans jumping over fences All the suits and the ties all march in a straight line Deafening the sound of the helpless
It's a city of a thousand heartbeats No room for another soul The same building on a different street But nobody knows
Tear it down till it's gone All you ever, all you ever wanted Kill the lights while they're on Is it all you ever, all you ever wanted?
Stand in a line for a hole in the wall 'Cause people still need cash to buy their freedom Moving forward, walking back Everyone is falling, but we don't see them
A day away from a stroke of bad luck Money's slipping right through the cracks It's a shame how we don't know What we really have
Tear it down till it's gone All you ever, all you ever wanted Kill the lights while they're on Is it all you ever, all you ever wanted? Is it all you ever wanted?
Mine's the city with a thousand heartbeats But we're just tryna keep a dream alive New sign on an old street I don't recognise
Tear it down till it's gone All you ever, all you ever wanted Kill the lights while they're on Is it all you ever, all you ever wanted? Is it all you ever wanted?
