about
Quite poignant. An album closer.
lyrics
When I walk past the news stand and glance at the pictures of people they want me to see
I turn to the cityscape looming to majestically. wondering what is this to me.
So they build buildings taller to countenance all the connections by virtue to sell,
While somewhere on camera, the vacuous chatter of a stranger with gossip to tell.
The conversations as empty as the rooms on the forty-fifth floor.
Fed by the wrong kind of plenty - constantly hungry for more.
The glossy productions, the burnished constructions that pursue dominance of the sky.
The shadows are cast by those who'd persuade us to wish we could all be as high.
But the bright lights disguise that there's nothing - bringing fire to extinguish the blaze.
Manufactured deceit of our yearning - the belief that the building betrays.
And those who aspire to a vista, glass-walled paradise clearly defined,
While they're all looking up to the penthouse, unaware how they've been undermined
So I stand with my back to metropolis - face the glorious power of the sea,
Where the skyline, expansive and open, leaves me nothing and no-one
and free.
