Corruption City

Corruption City

Darkness consumes
No sun will rise

Welcome to our city;
the city of the future.
Convenience and pleasure
all at your beck and call

Recieve your reward
a few pieces of paper
to spend at your leisure

Selling your soul
to the city

The daily routine
of toiling for trinkets
has you strung out
and feeling depressed

All human connection
seems so distant
drink away the pain
a few shows to distract

In the neon lights
in the downtown rain
you begin to wonder
why everything's the same

You won't continue this
mindless game
of breaking your soul
for someone else's gain

Reach out to who's out there
who feels the same way
grew weary of the city
Can't corrupt us all

A million souls
struggle internally
With their connection
to the outside world

Form bonds they can't
courrupt us all
