Things
November 9, 2013
As cities rise
Out of sweat and tears
Does anybody else stop to wonder
What is the price?
We refuse to wait.
Those left behind
Have no chance
And if I closed my eyes
Maybe the world
Would do away with me, too
Don't fight the progress
Let it infringe upon your sacred morals
Let it infect your curios mind
Question your human worth
But when the world goes to ruin
And your golden cities fall
When all that's left
Are your empty possessions
Do you have anything at all?
