Soulless Symphony

Come ride the subway hearts off alone inside In this city you forget the tug of time's tide In this maze of metal and stone Life's raw edges left unknown Walk away ignoring who may fall Forgetting how to feel if you can even feel at all Come see the living dead in a city of screams Lost in the rhythm and tearing at their seams Shuffling shadows my faiths fading fast These moments melting never learning to last Lost in the lights caught in the noise To the puppets dancing we're all just toys Is there more than this endless show? In the city of screams does anyone know? Come see all the stillness a silence so deep Squirrel away with your secrets to keep He shoots He scores And the crowd goes wild Make sure you speak to me like I'm an only child Seems like every half decade our paths entwine When sleep eludes let's get crude Have a good time Come see the living dead in a city of screams Lost in the rhythm and tearing at their seams Shuffling shadows my faiths fading fast These moments melting never learning to last
