Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Walking down an alley
Deep in blue neon
A dead end for today
Under skyways worn
[Verse 2]
Concrete from far below
Rising up above
Surrounded by shadows
Garden without gods
[Verse 3]
All are strangers alike
All riding in blind
The purple of their eyes
In reverie unwind
[Verse 4]
Circling sub-city
A rainbow appears
To calm down the fury
To calm other's fears
[Verse 5]
This random occurrence
Is only a sign
Of the incoherence
In the clockwork mind
[Verse 6]
A symphony of our time
Recalling the past
People in a decline
Denying the vibrations we're made of
[Chorus]
Somber drama
Rolling downhill
Panorama
All is so still
Anyway, anyhow
Anyhow, anyway
[Bridge]
End of all reason
End of all reason
Is what I go through
Yes, it is what I go through
Slip, sliding nation
Slip, sliding nation
Is what they must do
Yes, it is what they must do
[Verse 7]
Over the greying landscape
Under a deadened sky
Sitting on a mountain
I will stand aside
[Verse 8]
As I am a witness
I turned a blind eye
I am feeling helpless
But it passes by
[Verse 9]
Is this a modern legend?
Maybe a fairy tale
Just a future requiem
Cutting along the fiction that we're made of
[Chorus]
Somber drama
Rolling downhill
Panorama
All is so still
Anyway, anyhow
Anyhow, anyway
